EMH Foundation celebrates physicians on Doctors' Day
Each year on March 30, the Elmhurst Memorial Hospital (EMH) Foundation honors doctors for the invaluable comfort and care they provide.
Going to the emergency room on New Year’s Day is not typically how anyone wants to start the new year, especially after a year like 2020. And luckily for Joanna Curry’s family, her mom was taken to Elmhurst Hospital for specialized, personalized care.
What they thought would be a quick ER visit during the holidays turned into a 17-day hospital stay with 13 of those days spent in the Critical Care Unit.
“To see her team of doctors gathered outside her room discussing her treatment options, including which medications to use without causing further complications, was the true definition of collaboration,” Curry says. “The communication between her team of doctors was outstanding and offered me comfort during an uncertain time.”
