A Word from Our Staff

Linda Drouse
ENGINEERING ASSISTANT
10 yrs with St. Mary's of Michigan
I enjoy working at St. Mary’s of Michigan in the Engineering Services Department. Our department is a supportive environment which everyone works as a team.

As a customer support department, we make a difference every day to patients, associates, and visitors by ensuring that the facilities and equipment are running efficiently and effectively.

Our department is well respected on the things that we do inside and outside of the hospital. We take that extra step to promptly respond to those in need of assistance.
