Ms. Ward's Success Story

“What a heartfelt and wonderful team. I’m so blessed to have met all of you. Everyone truly cared about me and celebrated all of my success.”
- Ms. Ward


 

From Cornerstone Specialty Hospitals Shawnee

Ms. Ward tested positive for COVID19 and began to experience difficulty breathing. She went to a local emergency room, was admitted, and put on an AirVo machine to support her breathing. When she transitioned to Cornerstone, she needed maximum oxygen support from the AirVo machine and was limited in her mobility.

From day one, Ms. Ward trusted our team to help her return home to her children. This trust inspired Ms. Ward to work hard on her personalized treatment plan and accomplish her goals!

Upon discharge to her home, Ms. Ward was walking independently with minimum oxygen assistance! Before she was discharged, she wrote words of kindness about every team member who played a role in her recovery. We’re so happy Ms. Ward is home for the holidays with her family!
 
 
 

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.
