Regaining Independence with St. Luke's Rehabilitation

In February 2019, Bruce Au's lungs collapsed and his heart stopped; he was rushed to Providence Holy Family Hospital. He arrived with Influenza A, Influenza B and an infection, all of which escalated when combined with his Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). He spent six days in ICU and was released to the Spokane Veterans Home for inpatient rehabilitation for four and a half months.
