Active Harold Sears, 99, was nothing short of elated when leaving for home from our Kansas rehabilitation hospital. Harold was admitted after a head injury caused by a fall. He put his energy and positivity to work during his time with us. He was able to safely go back home after just over a week’s time. Harold made a lot of friends with our staff during his short time, and we wish him the all the best when he turns 100 in May!
