      Wendy, you make such a good point and I agree with you. Once I found out it was the husband that was having a difficult time I did consider speaking with the wife to see if she could have him come in for a QOL appointment. They did end up coming in today. ...

      Party room? Kidding, but I would LOVE to have extra space I needed to find a use for! We have way outgrown our current hospital. Do you have any need for a "phone room" for either CSRs or other team members to call clients? It would be quiet, away ...
