Success Story: Abby Sheffield

October 4, 2024

Wurtland Nursing and Rehabilitation, in partnership with Reliant Rehabilitation, is excited to share resident Abby Sheffield’s Success Story!

Abby Sheffield was admitted to Wurtland Nursing and Rehab after a hospitalization for a pulmonary embolism, respiratory failure, and COPD, leaving her very weak with low endurance. She began physical and occupational therapy with the goal of regaining her strength and stamina. Abby was especially motivated by her dream of moving to Florida, a goal she had set prior to becoming ill. Her determination drove her to put in consistent effort during her therapy sessions.

With the expert guidance of her therapy team, Abby made remarkable progress, gaining the ability to perform daily tasks and ambulate with modified independence! She is now well on her way to safely transitioning to her new life in Florida. Congratulations to Abby and her Care Team on their success!
