Patient Success Stories

Sandra's Story

Sandra Dunning arrived at Select with 2 chest tubes, 4 drainage tubes, an open abdominal wound, a tracheostomy, a feeding tube and needing multiple IV medications.

"The doctors and nurses were emotionally invested in my care. They were very compassionate and made me feel they understood what I was going through." Along with a complex plan, the Select team focused on improving Sandra's nutrition to increase her participation in physical and occupational therapies and support wound healing. "The day I was well enough to go outside and visit my favorite dog, Shane, I knew I would be going home."

Today Sandra is at home living with her husband and her family of Bichons. Not even her doctors could have predicted her amazing recovery.
