“My family’s experience with Whittier Rehabilitation Hospital — especially my Dad’s nurse practitioner/lead NaDarron, occupational therapist Hillary, physical therapists Elizabeth & Scott, speech therapist Abby, respiratory team Nancy & Bill, West Wing nursing team members Amber, Kim & Meg, East Wing nursing team member Rachel, and case manager Ana — was out of this world.

My dad entered Whittier in mid-October a critically ill & sick man with double pneumonia on a ventilator and a trach, using a feeding tube, on dialysis, and much much more. At that point, he had already been in the ICU for a month prior to coming to Whittier. He had been so deconditioned from his extended duration in bed, and was unable to walk. The Whittier team worked fluidly with him at every obstacle and every turn, treated our family with the upmost respect and care, and bravely rehabilitated my dad who was most certainly an extremely complex case.

By the grace of the Whittier team and God, my dad came home just a few days ago. He has no ventilator, no trach, no feeding tube and is able to eat, talk and walk with the minimal assistance of a walker. With a couple more weeks of in home therapy (which our case manager seamlessly set up for us), as well as outpatient therapy, my dad will be walking and functioning independently again very soon.

At the careful and dedicated hands of his team at Whittier, my dad has been given a second chance at life. As we continue to settle him back into our home, I am even more grateful and appreciative for all of the work that the Whittier team has done for him. We would not be here today without them and will sing their praises for eternity.​”
