Christmas at Pelican Ridge
There are many hospitals that claim to be in the top of any
list
Where a patient goes for severe compound fractures, strokes,
heart attacks and fatal diseases hard to resist
Hoag, Cedar-Sinai, UCLA, Stanford and Scripts
More often than not preventing an early placement in a crypt
If successful the patient is sent not home but to a rehab
facility
To continue the healing process and restore a patients
capabilities
Pelican Ridge is a medical facility providing rehabilitation
and long term care
To the damaged mental and physical conditions repair
An excellent staff from the doctors, nurses, vocational,
nurses’, janitors and to staff exceling in performance of their craft
But the band of those rehabilitators who teach patients how
to walk, use their arms and hands achieving a recovery path take the cake
Safely urging and insuring a patient can learn again to
stand and get out of bed
And any barriers to recovery shed
There should be a wall with the rehab personnel engraved—Aubree,
Karen, Mo (out of bed and to rehab go); Ethan, Jesse, John
(So hard to assist a patient
to on the commode get on);
Ankini, Esther and Emilie
(When a patient does another rep her smile will make you
feel silly)
Last but not least Brandon, Jessica, Sara
(Who obtains more reps than taxes levied by the Irish kings
at Tara)
Kesha Straker is the head nurse
(The glue that holds Pelican together and prevents
recoveries from sliding back in reverse)
There is no better place to spend in recovery during the
Holidays than at Pelican
Peace on Earth, Goodwill to Men to at Pinecreek to the Christmas
tranquility you seek
