Glenn, 84, enjoys camping with his family and friends and spending time with his cat, but fell seriously ill in June 2025. He developed chronic diarrhea, fever, fatigue, and malaise, and his condition quickly became critical. By the time he was admitted to Kindred Hospital San Antonio Central on July 19, 2025, he was facing multiple serious health challenges, including pneumonia, sepsis, encephalopathy, COPD, and C. diff infection.

During his hospitalization, Glenn required intubation and was placed on a ventilator multiple times. His care team provided close monitoring and treatment with antibiotics, including Cefepime and Zosyn, alongside other medications to stabilize his condition. With determination and the support of his physicians, nurses, and respiratory team, Glenn slowly began to recover.

On August 16, 2025, Glenn was well enough to be discharged to Peterson Hospital ARU to continue his rehabilitation. Thanks to his perseverance and the dedication of his care team, Glenn is moving forward on his recovery journey with the hope of returning to the activities he loves most—camping with his family and spending time with his beloved cat.

Hector, 50, always lived a very independent life, but became ill just a few days before being admitted to Kindred Hospital San Antonio Central. He arrived with abdominal pain and diarrhea, as well as a history of serious medical complications, including lower extremity wounds, a recent ankle infection, and osteomyelitis. By the time he reached Kindred, he required specialized care and close monitoring to help him stabilize and recover.

At Kindred, Hector received comprehensive treatment, including wound care and IV antibiotics to help fight infection. His care team worked diligently to manage his symptoms, address his wounds, and restore his strength.

After nearly a month of treatment, Hector made meaningful progress and was discharged to Encompass ARU on September 3, 2025, to continue his rehabilitation.

Thanks to his perseverance and the support of his dedicated care team, Hector is moving forward on his recovery journey and is looking ahead to regaining his independence once again.

Alvino, a 50-year-old who enjoys music, gaming, and spending time with his family, came to Kindred Hospital East New Jersey in July with painful wounds that were draining and difficult to manage. He had just been discharged from another hospital earlier that month, but continued to struggle, especially with wound pain and the challenges of his other health conditions, including diabetes, heart disease, and kidney failure requiring dialysis.

When Alvino arrived, he needed specialized wound care along with physical and occupational therapy. His care team worked closely with him, treating his wounds while also helping him rebuild his strength and mobility. Despite the added difficulty of balancing dialysis treatments, Alvino remained motivated to keep improving.
Over time, his wounds healed and his pain lessened. He made steady progress in therapy, and by late August, Alvino was strong enough to safely discharge to the next level of care.

Alvino’s journey is a reminder that recovery is possible with determination and the right support. Thanks to his hard work and the dedication of his care team, he is now able to return to what matters most, enjoying life and spending time with his loved ones. "Everyone at Kindred worked well together and helped me a lot," shared Alvino.
