A God-Appointed Call For Helen

November 22, 2022 By Steve Davis

The timing of “Bob’s” frantic call to Genesis was miraculous.

His wife “Helen” had nearly died from a recent heart attack. Upon her release from the hospital, she suffered another cardiac event that led to her second hospitalization.

Now Helen was being released again and urgently needed a CPAP machine to use at home. Unfortunately, none would be available from medical equipment suppliers for another six months due to a supply chain backlog!

Providentially, a few weeks earlier, Genesis had received an unexpected donation: a supply of CPAP machines! When Bob called Genesis in his desperate search for one, the Genesis clinic in Caldwell was especially delighted to help because CPAP machines are rarely donated to Genesis. In His perfect timing, God already had provided for Helen.

We’re so thankful God continues to provide healthcare through people like you and Genesis for our neighbors in need!

This Thanksgiving, you can help bring improved health and hope to more low-income and uninsured people in the Treasure Valley.

Renewed Hope For Clay

November 15, 2022 By Steve Davis

A visibly downcast Clay* walked into the Genesis clinic in Garden City, Idaho. He had been referred by St. Luke’s Humphreys Diabetes Center hoping Genesis would care for him.


Lisa, the front office coordinator, attentively listened to Clay as he described his situation.
He explained that without medication and medical care, he couldn’t control his
type 1 diabetes.


Clay was an employed family man. Unfortunately, his salary couldn’t cover the combined expenses of medication, medical insurance, and the cost of living.


It was an all-too-familiar case: having to choose between food and rent over health care.
But at Genesis, happy endings take place every day …

When Lisa informed Clay that the Genesis diabetics treatment team would help him stabilize his condition at no cost, his face lit up with renewed hope!


Genesis immediately registered Clay as a patient. He was now eligible for free periodic visits with a specialist, medication, and meetings with a dietician. He even was equipped with a blood pressure cuff on that first visit to monitor his high blood pressure.


He left the clinic feeling on top of the world!


Today, Clay’s diabetes is being managed at the Genesis Canyon County Clinic in Caldwell, Idaho, close to his home. He is working consistently with the medical and diabetes care teams of volunteers.
