#GivingTuesday Healthcare Heroes

Megan Panico, MD

As a teen, I spent months at Gaylord recovering from an auto accident. It’s a time that ultimately shaped my profession and my understanding of what patient-focused care really means. Coming full circle now as Gaylord Hospital medical director has been the highlight of my career.

From what I witnessed as a front-line pulmonologist in Hartford Hospital’s ICU at the height of COVID, I knew that my patients would need the kind of extensive post-acute rehabilitation that only Gaylord can offer.

WHAT GAYLORD OFFERS – A MULTIDISCIPLINARY APPROACH TO HELPING PEOPLE WITH COMPLEX MEDICAL NEEDS FOCUS ON REHAB – JUST CAN’T BE OFFERED ANYWHERE ELSE.

Having the unique opportunity to follow my patients from the point of listening to their families saying their goodbyes in the ICU to watching them walk out of Gaylord’s doors weeks later has been nothing short of amazing. Thank you for your support.
