A 30-foot steel beam adorned with the signatures of physicians, nurses, team members and community leaders now rests in the structural framework of the new UofL Hospital West Tower.

👏 Let's give a big congratulations to our latest DAISY Foundation Award winner, Teri Bellan, RN! 💐 Teri, a Medical Emergency Response Interventional Team nurse, was nominated for "(speaking) to the patient instead of about the patient" and always explaining what's happening. Specifically, she was nominated for making a patient more at ease in some of his final moments. Thank you, Teri, for your dedication to improving your patients' lives.🌟

"You really define who you are in those dark moments ... Who are you in those moments? That has nothing to do with what you have or what you possess and everything to do with what's in your heart." Live Beyond: A Celebration of Trauma Survivors shared survivors' stories of triumph through a sentimental art exhibit at the Speed Art Museum. Photographer Scotty Perry, writer Conner Mackowiak and art therapist Amy Mattingly spent time with survivors—whose injuries ranged from gunshot wounds to burns to car accidents—to capture their stories. 🔗 ULHealth.co/3WKT1Pw

UofL Health celebrated #TraumaSurvivorsDay by hosting a sentimental art exhibit that shared and celebrated survivors' stories of triumph. Live Beyond: A Celebration of Trauma Survivors, centered around kintsugi, the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by mending cracks with lacquered gold. The process is intended to treat breakage and repair as part of an object's history instead of something to disguise. Photographer Scotty Perry, writer Conner Mackowiak and art therapist Amy Mattingly spent time with survivors—whose injuries ranged from gunshot wounds to burns to car accidents—to capture their stories, which were displayed at the Speed Art Museum. 🔗 ULHealth.co/3WKT1Pw
