Mr. Coates' Success Story
From Cornerstone Specialty Hospitals Broken Arrow
We’re forever grateful for the opportunity to make a difference in Broken Arrow!
When Mr. Coates transitioned to Cornerstone Specialty Hospitals for continued care due to complications from open-heart surgery, he was on a ventilator. In addition, Mr. Coates needed total assistance for his mobility.
In less than three weeks in our care, our respiratory therapy team weaned Mr. Coates from the ventilator! Alongside this improvement, our rehabilitation team rebuilt Mr. Coates’ strength. He was able to transfer with minimal assistance and was walking 200 feet with a rolling walker. With this progress, our case managers discharged Mr. Coates home!
In a recent visit to our hospital, Mr. Coates shared his gratitude for our team. He is now fully independent and credits his recovery to “the great care at Cornerstone Specialty Hospitals.”
Care for Complex Conditions
Patients come to our hospitals with serious conditions such as respiratory failure, complex wounds, sepsis, stroke, congestive heart failure, or even a combination of these. Their diagnoses are often complicated by existing health problems like diabetes or COPD. Many of our patients require treatments such as mechanical ventilators, dialysis, or IV therapy.
