WAFFLE DAY
These gentlemen somehow convinced Jacque Waite, RN, Supervisor of the Cardiopulmonary Rehab Department and Andrea Davis, RN to make waffles for patients today. No, waffles aren't a "super food" - but they are super yummy, and a rare treat. 

Our Cardiac Rehab team is there every day to make the journey to better health a fun one for our patients. Just so happened, today it was with waffles.
