I came to Kindred and never thought I would go home. Within two weeks I was completely weaned from the ventilator and ready to discharge home. Everyone was so positive both medically and spiritually and encouraged my recovery. I especially remember Duke the RT who held my hand when I was nervous about weaning, and Stephanie the speech pathologist who was encouraging and passionate. I wish I could have thanked everyone personally at Kindred First Hill, I am home now and walking 0.5 miles with no trouble!
