2020 DAISY Award Winner

On Wednesday, May 6th, Tulsa Spine & Specialty Hospital (TSSH) celebrated National Nurses Day. We love a good party but since we still have staff out during the pandemic, we temporarily took a more modest approach to our celebration. We'll do the same for Hospital Week (May 10-16) and look forward to "Hospital Week 2.0" in late summer/early fall.

Sharing the Christmas Spirit with Children in Local Shelter

by admin

No parking spaces to be found. Long lines at checkout. Rush shipping. While most of the city is abuzz with last-minute holiday preparations, Lee Berger and Mike Heavener of Tulsa Spine & Specialty Hospital aren’t worried about what’s left to cross off their shopping lists. Their vehicles, loaded with six carefully decorated trees and dozens of gifts, are urban sleighs that will arrive just in time for Christmas at the Laura Dester Shelter for children who may not have anyone shopping for them this holiday.

When should kids wear swim ear plugs?

The thrill of jumping into the pool on a warm summer day is one of the highlights of the season for 5-year-old Charlie Armstrong. Escaping the heat and the sounds of the world above, Charlie takes advantage of the limited time before school is back in session and the pool closes to take a deep breath and dive underwater. It is pure bliss – until he rises in pain, shaking his head to let the water out of his ear.
