Respiratory Therapist Ben Sumicad brings
more than 30 years of RT expertise to
Star Valley Health. Reflecting the spirit of
a hero, Ben describes his heart for patient
care in that moment of crisis:
“You just have to step up to the plate. This is what you trained for.
Bring everything you know to the front.”
Ben works with respiratory patients across a spectrum of care, from
those with chronic illnesses to ER trauma patients. And either Ben
or a member of his team are also present at every birth at Star Valley
Health to ensure newborns and their families have on-call support.
RT/Sleep Lab Director Chad Galvin describes Ben as one of Star
Valley’s “go to” team members. “He is extremely passionate about
quality patient care, which is easily felt when he is on shift. We and
our patients are blessed to have Ben on the RT team!”
