A [Very] Little More on Peterson

Outpatient Services

Monday's long blog post was intended to be entirely about my hospital stay.  Since discharge I have had daily care in the  IV therapy department, where they hook up new bags of antibiotics which run into my arm through two small portable pumps.  These are worn around my neck in a nifty brown-and-orange bag!  On weekends this care is delivered through the heart catheterization lab.  All of the nurses who've cared for me there have been absolutely and totally wonderful, and do their work with excellence.

I also visited the Wound Care department, headed by Lori Gagnon, MD, for followup on my foot.
Doctor Gagnon was interested, intelligent, pleasant, comforting and reassuring.  She really made me feel good about how well my foot was improving.

I hate to be perceived as a shill for PRMC but I have honestly been very pleased with the critical aspects of care that I received there.
