I want to tell you how my sister ,Maureen, and Kindred Hospital saved my life. I went to see a physician about a sore on my back. He sent me by ambulance to the emergency room at JFK. After a cat scan it was determined that I had a severe infection that made the tissue necrotic . I was brought into emergency Surgery, I spiked a 105 temperature. After two more surgeries to remove necrotic tissue the doctors told my sister I might not recover and recommended Hospice. Maureen, my sister and P.O A. and healthcare surrogate, instructed them to do everything medically to save my life. The decision was made to send me to Kindred Hospital. I spent weeks in ICU, during that time the doctors and wound care staff diligently cared for me even when I became combative and pulled out my trach and NG tube. When I recovered enought I was moved to the 3rd floor. The aides and nurses were there each time I woke up to tell me where I was and reassure me that I was doing well. Wound Care Continued working on my wound. The wound was healing with their care. As I became more aware I started physical therapy and occupational therapy. The physical therapy staff were very encouraging, in the first days they helped me stand. At first I thought I Would never stand or walk again. The physical therapy staff worked with me every day and each day I stood for a longer period of time and took more steps. They helped me learn how to get in and out of bed and go up and down stairs. If it weren't for the dedication and knowledge of the Kindred staff I would not be here. Thank you
