Before his accident, 46-year-old Edward Castaneda from Fort Collins, Colo., was working full-time doing interior remodeling. He enjoyed drawing, playing football, camping, and spending time with his spouse, three children, and one grandson…

After experiencing a brain injury, his physician referred him to Northern Colorado Long Term Acute Hospital.

“It was great!” Edward says. “The nurses were very friendly. Dr. Pearson and Dr. Blake had great attitudes and were very personable. I loved when they gave me a standing ovation when I went to rehabilitation.”

After discharge, Edward received additional care at Northern Colorado Rehabilitation Hospital to get stronger before he went home. He was excited to get back to his family and his house.
