alyssa leavitt, RN

We have a patient on our unit who is wheelchair bound and has been with us for quite a while. He currently was using an info desk wheelchair to get around the unit and there were times that they'd have to come and get his (their) chair for other hospital uses. Alyssa saw an opportunity to provide him with his own wheelchair!!! She brought it to work one morning and presented it to him with all of us watching. He got so happy and emotional. We wrote his name on the back and let him know THIS chair is his and no one can take it from him again.
