"Imagine making 1,000 hopes & dreams come true," says chief medical officer @Francois1Fritz. On 4/29, @nyulangone sent home its 1000th successfully-treated #COVID19 patient from the main campus, who emerged from the hospital amid cheers from staff, nurses, & healthcare workers.

Been working with a patient who has been intubated. Got the tube out today and he requested to see me and said this: “I want you to hear my first voice. You gave me my second voice with the communication board.” Hard week but worth it for this. #COVID19 #ICURehab #SLPeeps – at Manhattan, NY

It has been a while since we have heard the joyous sound of this bell ringing on the @uchealth @CUPhysMed unit. Today we get the honor of sending home our first #COVID19 #Rehab patient. Nowhere near the 1000th from @nyulangone but still worth celebrating! #Physiatry #COVID

Listening to Part 2 of Acute Care PT and COVID-19: How Can WE add the GREATEST Value? with @Dr_Ridge_DPT and @BrianHullDPT While parts of the country are seeing the other side of the curve, we should be prepared for a "rehab surge" demanding PT and rehab services

Absolutely, seeing some odd presentations with gait, but across the board many seem to have difficulty with fine motor tasks and mobility with dual tasking. May be attributed to medications during #ICU stay but concerned about effect of #COVID19 on nervous system globally.

Below: this is how I am taking my cell phone into ICU during #COVID19 I am amazed that my touch screen & fingerprint security access works through the bag. Even the phone audio worked well The snack sized bag is a great fit for my phone Will make infection control easier!
My snack bag phone cover. Surprisingly everything works through the plastic: faceID, touchID, touch gestures, even voice calls. Easier disinfection routine with isopropyl alcohol or replace with new one every time.

As a kid, I knew I was in trouble when my Mom would say “Conan Christopher O’Brien” through the megaphone she borrowed from the SWAT team.

One thing I know for sure: no one on the right side of history has ever had to nitpick what the definition of “cage” is.
