Gertrude C., 68, Pawtucket, RI

Gertrude Cabrol, a resident of Pawtucket Falls Health Center in Pawtucket, Rhode Island, had her wish to have her personal items transported to her new facility granted, thanks to our Rhode Island chapter. Cabrol, 67, had been living in an assisted living facility, but after spending time in the hospital, she was moved to the long-term care facility an hour away from her prior home. Cabrol has no family nearby to assist with moving her personal items to her new facility. Luckily, her social worker reached out to our Rhode Island chapter to see if they could assist with this wish. Not only did the Rhode Island chapter move her belongings, but they surprised Cabrol with new clothing, a throw blanket, an Easter basket filled with goodies and Easter flowers.
