Pause, reflect, heal
The Gila River Indian Community Healing Garden is a ceremonial healing area that strengthens the restoring nature of Mercy Gilbert Medical Center. Intertwined with pathways, gardens, fountains, benches, and artwork, the garden represents life at every stage. Through the use of water, sunlight, and natural foliage, the garden provides a place of peace and contemplation. It is a place to pause, reflect, and heal.
The Gila River Indian Community Healing Garden is part of Mercy Gilbert Medical Center. This garden is a place where patients and their loved ones -- along with staff and friends of the hospital -- are invited and encouraged to find solace, serenity, and reprieve. The garden is the result of a friendship between Mercy Gilbert Medical Center and the Gila River Indian Community two entities with a shared philosophy of surrounding patients, families, and our neighbors -- with an atmosphere of healing for the body, mind, and spirit.
