Lisa worked with pharmacy and HMS to get medication changed to one that only cost $20 and that patient could afford and ensured the patient had medication at home.
I had been prescribed Ambien to sleep because I have a hard time sleeping in hospitals. I started having weird dreams and hallucinating. I thought people were outside and coming in to get me and were in the room with me. Lisa assured me that no one will get me. Also had dreams that I need to save people and Lisa assured me they were safe. Lisa also assured me that my food was not poisoned. She was the best. Otherwise, I would've flipped out without her!
