Mr. Buzzard's Success Story
“I’m leaving feeling like my old self, but more healthy, and on the road paved for recovery.”
- Mr. Buzzard
From Cornerstone Specialty Hospitals Shawnee
Mr. Buzzard, a car mechanic, ruptured his appendix and was hospitalized. When he transitioned to our #Shawnee hospital, Mr. Buzzard required medication management, oxygen support, and wound care. He couldn’t move without aid from the rehabilitation team.
Despite these challenges, Mr. Buzzard trusted our team and a personalized treatment plan to regain his independence. In a short time at our hospital, Mr. Buzzard restored his ability to breathe independently and was walking with a rolling walker! Our case managers discharged Mr. Buzzard home!
In a recent visit to our hospital, Mr. Buzzard shared how the care he received at Cornerstone empowered the progress he continued to make with home health services.
Care for Complex Conditions
Patients come to our hospitals with serious conditions such as respiratory failure, complex wounds, sepsis, stroke, congestive heart failure, or even a combination of these. Their diagnoses are often complicated by existing health problems like diabetes or COPD. Many of our patients require treatments such as mechanical ventilators, dialysis, or IV therapy.
