Utah Valley Specialty Hospital, Provo Utah

Utah Valley Specialty Hospital, Provo Utah

Jim and I received a call yesterday from Ron's case worker at IMC that Ron had been accepted and was medically cleared to be moved to a specialty hospital. There are four of these types of hospitals in Utah which is great because most states do not have more than a few. The specialty hospital is designed to care for patients who were once in ICU or trauma and need further care for wounds and physical therapy. They will mostly focus on Ron's wounds with a little physical therapy on his limbs. He won't be able to put pressure on his pelvis for 3 months per his orthopedic surgeon at IMC (I mentioned this earlier). This will also allow time for his brain to heal.

Ron's New Hairdo:

Burr Hole and incision to drain the fluid surrounding Ron's brain.
