Patient Determined to Walk Again Receives Support from VNA/SCC Social Worker

While trying to regain the physical strength to walk again, Paul Davis’ gas was turned off in June, leaving him unable to cook a meal for himself in his subsidized housing unit. To ward off the cold in the late fall months, Soffia Jonsdottir, a social worker with the Visiting Nurse Association of South Central Connecticut (VNA/SCC), donated a space heater to him, which worked well to provide some heat until his electricity was turned off in October. Learning to walk again is a challenge in itself, imaging doing so without social supports, heat or electricity?
