My husband was in the CCU Stepdown unit. His health was not improving, and the goal of our family was that he return home with hospice care. Fortunately, we were made aware that the primary care physician was not a champion of hospice care. Jean, my husband's nurse, became our advocate and helped us work toward our goal of getting my husband home. It's my belief that if Jean didn't go above and beyond, my husband may not have returned home. Jean made a difference and I and my family are grateful.
