Corey is in his mid-twenties and recently went into organ failure. His family wasn’t sure that he would survive the night, let alone be healthy again. Our expert cardiac care team at Allegheny General Hospital managed Corey’s condition with advanced cardiac treatments for several weeks and ultimately saved his life with a heart transplant. Today, almost two months later, Corey is strong, healthy and feeling incredibly grateful to our care team and the donor family who gave him the gift of life. Watch his story: https://cbsn.ws/3MnprZY

Did you know that six of our hospitals have produce gardens that help feed patients who are lacking access to healthy foods? Saint Vincent, Jefferson, Allegheny Valley, Allegheny General, Forbes and West Penn Hospitals each grow hundreds of pounds of fresh produce every year that is then taken to their hospital’s Healthy Food Center where it's available for patients in need. This is just another way we’re helping to meet people where they are and provide them with the support and resources they need.

Who you are is just as important as what you do. “I feel like what I do matters here. I'm not just a number. I'm close with my leadership team. I'm close with my unit even just walking down the hallways people are smiling and waving. You know you don't find that everywhere,” said Erin H., an assistant nurse manager in the rehab unit at AHN Allegheny Valley Hospital. “So I find this to be a special place, and there's a reason that I've been here for almost seven years. I'm happy. I couldn't imagine working somewhere else.” Learn more about our open rehab nurse positions. https://bit.ly/3S6dY4b

A new study on the impact of falls and breaks in older adults underscores the need for prevention: https://bit.ly/4fgS2NL. Dr. David Stapor, one of our orthopaedic surgeons, says that a fracture of a main bone like a hip or spine is like “a heart attack for the skeleton” that sets off a cascade of inflammation and trauma.
