A goal-oriented treatment plan is vital to success at Cornerstone Specialty Hospitals. 💙

🎥: When Mr. Rivers transitioned to Cornerstone Specialty Hospitals Bossier City to recover from cardiac arrest complications, he couldn't get out of bed without maximum assistance. He was on a ventilator and required a feeding tube to receive his nutrients.

Despite these challenges, Mr. Rivers was determined to collaborate with our team and regain his independence. He set goals for himself and worked hard to achieve them.

As Mr. Rivers and our respiratory therapy team worked to wean him off the ventilator, our rehabilitation team helped Mr. Rivers stand. Alongside this progress, his feeding tube was removed, allowing him to enjoy his favorite food - pineapple!

Upon discharge to his home, Mr. Rivers could walk using a rollator walker with stand-by assistance for over 500 feet.

Although we will miss Mr. Rivers and the smile he shared with us, we're honored to help him return home to his wife. Congratulations on accomplishing your goals, Mr. Rivers!

She could breathe independently again and took her first steps since the surgery. Alongside this progress, Ms. Fraga's feeding tube was removed!
