Marcus came in for what was supposed to be a routine day procedure – in and out, back home by evening. He packed light: just his wallet and keys. But complications arose during surgery, and what should have been hours has now become a week-long hospital stay.
Living two states away from family, Marcus faces an uncomfortable reality: he's stuck without basic necessities. No toothbrush, no clean socks, no deodorant – none of the simple items that help maintain comfort and dignity during recovery. The thought of asking busy nurses to help coordinate deliveries feels overwhelming.
The patient resource cupboard becomes his lifeline, providing toiletries, comfortable socks, and other essentials that transform his unexpected extended stay from miserable to manageable.
