Rafael was a patient in the HCA Florida Trinity Hospital ER twice in 2024. On New Years Eve, he suffered a stroke. After getting prompt emergency care, Rafael was transferred to our sister facility HCA Florida Bayonet Point to receive a life saving procedure. Once he was released from the hospital, he came back to Trinity for speech therapy. This is a photo of one of his last sessions before he was cleared to go back to work. Rafael shares his experience in this video.
