Occupational Therapists Sonja, Barbara, and Jessie have advanced our clinical capabilities by earning certification in upper extremity dry needling, a highly effective technique used by occupational therapists to treat pain and myofascial dysfunction and to improve functional movement of the fingers, hand, elbow, and shoulder. We are excited to offer this new service in both our Shreveport and Bossier clinics, giving patients greater access to this specialized approach that supports mobility, comfort, and independence.

God of compassion and hope,

As we celebrate CHRISTUS Day, the birth and growth of CHRISTUS Health, we turn to Your Word and remember the call of Jesus: “Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine you did to me.” Fill our hearts with compassion and courage, so that in every act of care, every word of kindness, and every moment of service, we may recognize Your presence in those we serve. Unite us as One CHRISTUS, rooted in faith and dedicated to bringing hope and dignity to every person.

Amen

When Becky Tessier went into right thumb suspensionplasty surgery in December 2024, she hoped she would recover in time to hold her first grandbaby, arriving in February 2025. She was referred to our Outpatient Occupational Therapy Hand Clinic in Bossier, where Occupational Therapist Barbara Custer helped her through recovery. Barb’s patience, kindness, and knowledge supported Becky as she worked toward regaining strength and range of motion. After completing two months of therapy, Becky could confidently hold her grandchild, care for her family and return to the activities she enjoys without pain. Today, she considers our clinic a hidden gem and continues to recommend Barbara and the occupational therapy team to others.

This Cervical Cancer Awareness Month, Family Nurse Practitioner Twyla Hurst reminds others that early detection can make all the difference. According to Twyla, routine screenings give women the best chance at finding cervical cancer early, when treatment is most effective. Almost all cervical cancer cases are linked to HPV, making Pap and HPV tests important tools for early detection. Women should talk with their OB/GYN or primary care provider about keeping up with these essential screenings.

We are proud to recognize Addie Kuhr, RN, in the Highland Emergency Department as a recipient of the Good Catch Award. This award honors associates who demonstrate exceptional awareness, critical thinking, and decisive action.

Addie remained alert when caring for a patient who presented with chest pain but had an initially normal EKG. When the patient’s condition changed, she independently recognized subtle but serious changes, performed a follow-up EKG and identified signs of an acute heart attack. Because of her quick action, the patient was taken immediately to the cardiac cath lab, where a 100% artery blockage was successfully treated. Addie’s dedication and clinical excellence helped save this patient’s life.

Collen Elias knew that when she decided to change her primary care provider, having her treatment in one place would allow for better coordination of her health care. For years, she struggled with weakness, difficulty walking, and frequent ER visits. Medications weren’t helping either. It was then that her daughter and caregiver, Chaundra, decided it was time for a change. When Collen came to our ER, she immediately noticed the difference in care and attention to detail.
Family Medicine Specialist Dr. Jean Ancelet not only treated Collen but helped her understand the root causes of her symptoms, including a tumor at the base of her pituitary gland. She had thought it only affected her vision, but Dr. Ancelet explained how it impacted her energy, kidneys, and overall health.
Since then, Collen has improved, is in rehab, and is getting around more. Chaundra says the care at CHRISTUS has been the total package: physical, spiritual, social, and emotional. Collen feels blessed to have found Dr. Ancelet and encourages others to embrace change, stay active, and do all they can for themselves.
