Patient Story | Carl Shank | Stroke Care & Emergency Response

Описание: Patient Story | Carl Shank | Stroke Care & Emergency Response

This patient story was created by Michael LeGrand to document the experience of Carl Shank, a stroke survivor and longtime fire rescue chief whose outcome depended on rapid response, teamwork, and trust.
The film recounts the moment Carl’s stroke occurred—during a routine meeting—and how those around him recognized the signs immediately. What follows is a story not only about advanced neurological care, but about preparedness, protocol, and the human relationships that drive lifesaving decisions.
As the filmmaker, I focused on perspective: how it feels when the person usually in charge suddenly becomes the one in need, and how emergency systems work best when training, experience, and compassion align. The film balances clinical urgency with personal connection—reminding viewers that behind every protocol is a person, a family, and a community.
This project reflects my approach to healthcare storytelling in high-stakes environments—capturing clarity under pressure, honoring collaboration across teams, and grounding medical excellence in human trust.
