I was able to help a student with housing instability and a major medical condition get reestablished with a specialty health care team. Through this connection and nursing support in the school environment, we were able to provide stability for food, housing, and get a medical procedure to reverse a tracheostomy. This had a huge impact on this child’s future medical picture and improved the quality of life. To know that you were pivotal in making this happen for a child and family is humbling and very impactful.
