She is now the proud new owner of an electric wheelchair and able to get around the facility by herself.
She has several good friends and eats meals and plays cards with them daily. She enjoys bingo, is a spokesperson for the Resident Council, and is so loved and cared for by the staff at Norwalk Nursing & Rehab. Donna has a wonderful story that we are so proud to share. Great job, Donna!
