Success Story: Gerald Burns

The Glen

"Yes!, I am going home thanks to The Glen."

Before his hospital stay, Gerald was fully independent, working full-time, and actively involved in his community with his children. However, the road to recovery was difficult. When he first arrived at The Glen, he was in extreme pain, unable to feed himself, and required the help of two people for all transfers.

His primary goal was simple yet profound: to “get his legs back” and walk again. With the unwavering support of his family and the skilled therapists at The Glen, whom he describes as “excellent,” Gerald gradually regained his strength. After countless hours of therapy, he is now able to feed himself, walk with a walker, and perform daily tasks with minimal assistance. The pain has lessened, and with it, his independence has returned.

Now, Gerald is ready to go home, grateful for the care and compassion he received during his rehabilitation. He credits the team at The Glen for his progress, sharing that he doesn’t think he could have received better care anywhere else. His success story is a reminder of the power of persistence and expert support, and Gerald proudly recommends The Glen to anyone in need of rehab.
