When she and her family moved to the United States in the 1950s, she began to forget the horrors that she saw during that time. After a while, she forgot almost everything. It wasn’t until a few years ago that the memories started to come back. A fire at her neighbor’s house one morning triggered PTSD symptoms and the memories came flooding back. “I saw bombs. I saw people die.” Hubertine was already using physical therapists from VNA of Ohio who were helping her recover from a previous fall. Her therapists recommended that she work with a nurse, Sherry, from VNA’s mental health team. “You don’t even have to leave your house, they come to you. Isn’t that great?” “She [Sherry] listens to me, which helps me a lot,” Hubertine said. “She never hurries me. She never pushes me. She understands and gives me suggestions. We have a little bit of a chat, then she goes out the door and then everything is fine. I feel like they saved my life. Otherwise, I don’t know where I would have wound up.” Click here to view Hubertine’s story. Hubertine, a VNA of Ohio rehab and mental health patient
