During his hospitalization, Mr. Perryman was weaned off of the ventilator, and his tracheostomy tube was removed after four years. The physical, occupational, and speech therapists focused their therapy time on his goals of maximizing his functional independence and safety. Before being discharged, he was walking great distances, returned to eating a regular diet and his respiratory status had greatly improved.
We are very proud of all Mr. Perryman has overcome and wish him the best as he safely returns home.
