After delivering P's daughter in November, P had some complications and began hemorrhaging. Glanton took immediate action and called a code purple, which is an obstetric emergency. Postpartum hemorrhaging is a leading cause of maternal mortality and is a condition that the staff of NHP trains for by conducting regular drills.
"It went from a routine delivery to a critical situation when she started hemorrhaging and lost consciousness," said Glanton. "At that point, I just reacted to the situation and our whole team of nurses, physicians and corpsmen worked together to save her life."
Glanton's experience and her quick reactions calmed the situation and allowed P to make a full recovery.
"Not only did she deliver my baby girl, but she also saved my life," said P. "Her and the entire staff that was there that night are my angels."
