Patient Stories
“I arrived at the Emergency Room by ambulance on Christmas Eve after a pretty serious fall. From the moment I arrived, I was treated by the team like their only patient. The teamwork exhibited seemed like a carefully orchestrated symphony. I was confident that my care was being provided by experienced and expert nurses and physicians. The nurses constantly checked on my pain and my comfort. Questions from my family were quickly answered. My healing process continues, but because of the great work by the nurses in the ER, I was off to a great start.”
