Innovative Tracheostomy Recovery is at the Forefront at Cherrydale Health and Rehabilitation

MARLTON, NJ, UNITED STATES, June 18, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Cherrydale Health and Rehabilitation Center opened its doors to local healthcare and community partners for a moving evening of inspiration and impact.

Community hospital leaders, physicians, social workers, residential liaisons, and care managers gathered learned first-hand from patients about how they overcame immense medical challenges via the life-changing work of Cherrydale’s expert team specializing in tracheostomyrecovery. Administrator Trimane Goddard spearheaded the event.

The highlight of the evening was a series of powerful patient testimonials from individuals who overcame immense challenges—offering a firsthand look at the life-changing work of Cherrydale’s specialized tracheostomy recovery program.

The program also featured a clinical presentation by Dr. Anna McLean, Director of Pulmonology Services and a board-certified specialist in pulmonary disease, critical care, and mechanical ventilation.

Attendees heard from three patients sharing their own personal success stories. Ms. Jackson & Mr. Ferguson both entered the facility fully dependent on oxygen and tracheostomy and progressed to full decannulation and independent mobility.

Ms. Everly delivered a particularly moving account. After waking from a coma to find her life drastically changed, she was admitted to Cherrydale. Just two months into the program, she is now walking unassisted, speaking publicly, and preparing to reintegrate into her former life. She closed her remarks with heartfelt gratitude to the Cherrydale team and her pulmonologist, Dr. McLean.

Dr. McClean ended the program with a presentation on the pulmonary program’s design, clinical strengths, and its growing role in serving complex pulmonary patients across the region. She emphasized the vital role of interdisciplinary care and credited the highly skilled nursing and therapy teams for their empathy and encouragement.

“This unit is more than just a clinical program- it’s a lifeline,” Dr. McClean shared. “Our goal is to restore dignity and independence to patients who have experienced prolonged critical illness. And as you have heard tonight, the outcomes speak volumes.”

Cherrydale’s event offered a profound glimpse into the heart of post-acute rehabilitation. With a growing reputation for complex pulmonary care, Cherrydale continues to stand at the forefront of recovery for patients.
