After decades of struggling with the effects of a service-related brain injury, Scott Edgell found answers and support through a program at our MossRehab Institute for Brain Health. Through our intensive outpatient program, Scott learned what was happening to his brain and gained practical tools to manage his symptoms. His journey is one of understanding, adaptation, and renewed confidence in daily life, proving that healing can begin even years after injury.

After a service-related brain injury left him with lasting effects, Scott Edgell found relief through a rehabilitation program for veterans called the MossRehab Institute for Brain Health.

Congratulations to William Gardner, Neuropsychologist, on receiving a Mission Moment award for going above and beyond for a patient recovering from a stroke. Throughout a challenging, month-long stay, Bill consistently supported the care team. He helped with therapy participation, joined telehealth visits, supported nursing care, and advocated for the patient every step of the way. On the day of discharge, he even stayed late to ensure the patient was comfortable, cared for, and ready for the transition.

Bill’s compassion, patience, and dedication made a meaningful difference for this patient and the entire team. Thank you, Bill, for living our mission every single day.

Congratulations to Lauren Horn, an occupational therapist at the Jefferson Moss-Magee Rehabilitation – Tabor Road, located in the Willowcrest Building at Jefferson Einstein Philadelphia Hospital, in the 2TIP (Traumatic Injury Program) inpatient rehab unit, on winning this month's Mission Moment award! Lauren was leaving work when she saw a patient with difficulty walking trying to get home. She tried to secure a wheelchair to take the patient to the subway station herself, but learned that wheelchairs are not allowed to leave campus. Instead, Lauren paid for a rideshare to take the patient home. The rideshare driver was so inspired by Lauren's kindness that they took the patient food shopping on their way home. Thank you for everything you do, Lauren!
