Mease Dunedin Hospital

Today is National Cancer Survivors Day, a time to recognize our patients who have and are fighting cancer. Patients like Ron Buck, a Tierra Verde resident, who was diagnosed with stage 2 pancreatic cancer last year. After undergoing extensive surgery and withstanding a 12-cycle aggressive chemotherapy regiment to battle the disease at BayCare's St. Anthony's Hospital, Ron is now a cancer survivor. 💜

Ron is among the more than 18 million people in the United States who are cancer survivors. Today, Mease Dunedin Hospital honors each of our patients who are in the fight — and are winning. 💪

To celebrate the end of treatment, many patients ring a bell to represent the restoration of harmony and balance in life. Ron sure did on New Year’s Eve 2025. "I rang that bell really hard," he said.

At BayCare, our team members are there to applaud the patients as they ring out of their treatment. Our oncology teams are working with the latest advancements in cancer care. And by late summer, we'll continue those efforts with the opening of our new proton therapy center.

For Ron and all our patients, you're never alone when you receive your care at BayCare. Our skilled and caring team members, physicians and volunteers are there to help.

Not every day a giant shark makes rounds at the hospital! 🦈💙

We had so much fun welcoming the Clearwater Threshers to Mease Dunedin Hospital that we had to share a few more moments from their recent visit — especially these snapshots with our incredible team members.

From hallway drop-ins to quick photo ops, the team brought a great boost of energy to the day — and a reminder of just how special this community is. We’re so thankful to be part of it.

Thank you to Clearwater Threshers Baseball, Phinley - The Jawesome Clearwater Threshers Mascot, and Morton Plant Mease Foundation for making this visit possible and for taking the time to connect with our team and brighten the day. ⚾✨

Still smiling about this one! 🧢💙

A couple weeks ago, Clearwater Threshers Baseball — along with everyone’s favorite shark, Phinley - The Jawesome Clearwater Threshers Mascot 🦈 — stopped by Mease Dunedin Hospital, bringing energy, laughter and plenty of smiles to our team members.

Their visit helped build excitement for tonight’s Pitch for Pink game — a special night to Help Strike Out Breast Cancer, with proceeds supporting breast health programs at Morton Plant Mease hospitals.

🎟️ The game begins tonight at 6:30 p.m., and tickets are still available! Learn more: atmilb.com/4u91idh

Thank you to the Threshers and the Morton Plant Mease Foundation for spreading joy and helping rally our community around such an important cause. ⚾💗

As BayCare Week comes to a close, we’re celebrating the heart of Mease Dunedin Hospital — our incredible team. 💙

This year’s theme, Backed by Values. Powered by Teamwork, was felt in every moment. Every day, our team members bring our BayCare values of trust, respect and dignity to life — in the way they care for patients, support one another and show up when it matters most. It’s how our mission becomes more than words — it’s something you can feel in every interaction.

Throughout the week, it was especially meaningful to see leaders out across the hospital, connecting with team members, sharing treats and taking time to say thank you. These moments were a simple but powerful reminder of the appreciation and pride we have in this team.

To our team members: thank you for all the ways you show up, step in and make a difference. We are so grateful for you.

Because behind every moment of care is someone who makes it matter. 💙
