When Phillip McKitrick arrived at PMSL we were unsure if he was going to make it through the night. He was in and out of the hospital for the first few months that he was here, but, with the help of our staff, Phillip bounced back and over came all obstacles to be able to home this Wednesday, October 9th. Phillip states that he appreciates all of the Nurses and C.N.A’s that helped him get better and that he was grateful for their kindness. He also thanks the Skilled Therapy Department for getting him up and moving. Mark for getting him out of bed and into his wheelchair, lifting weights and exercising and Sara for helping him with his balance, and using his walker, Cris and Angela for helping him learn to walk with his prosthetic leg and Brandon and Roney for walking as well. He states that he was appreciative for the friendship that they gave him. He also wanted to thank the Restorative Therapy Department for continuing to help him stay moving. Stacey, Heather, Josh and Tosha helped with walking, climbing stairs, walking backwards and walking sideways back and forth. Phillip states that he loves and appreciates all of the staff that helped him along his journey and that he will miss them all. We wish Phillip all of the best of luck at home and our staff will miss him too!
