Debbie met Cindy at Kindred – the Long Term Care facility as she arrived there in an ambulance. Debbie was on the phone with their Aunt Sandy who was able to talk to Cindy when she was being wheeled into the hospital. She was poked and prodded when she was admitted to her room just to get baseline stats.
Cindy has settled into Kindred wonderfully. The staff are great. They are very caring and gentle. Cindy started Physical Therapy at bedside today and also had Speech Therapy. The Speech Therapist showed her how to use a special device that she can use for talking. It makes her sound like a robot.
