She Went Out of Her Way to Help: A patient at Wound Care & Hyperbaric Medicine came in with a very severely infected foot. Dr. Kupsaw told the patient he needed to go to the ED right away. The patient said he couldn't go because his mother, who has Alzheimer's and dementia, lives with him and his wife, and there wouldn't be anyone there to watch her. Gloria Abella, PRN LPN, left work, went to the man's home, and sat with his mother until the man's wife came home after he was admitted to the hospital a little after 8 p.m. Samantha Antonini, Wound Care & Hyperbaric Medicine clinical supervisor, says this act of kindness makes everyone proud to be part of the team.
