As a micro-preemie, Aveanna patient Racarda has proven some of the strongest fighters come in the smallest packages.
After nearly a year in the hospital, Racarda joined Aveanna in August. His nurses, Jai and Olenkeya, play a pivotal role in his care, supporting his oxygen, g‑button needs, and growth every step of the way. With their help, Racarda has continued to hit milestones and experience new things like snow, all while staying safe and happy with his family.
Patients like Racarda are at the heart of all we do at Aveanna. This Patient Recognition Week, and every week in between, we are thrilled to celebrate his inspiring story.
