WATCH: Dtown Hospital Staff Cheer Coronavirus Patient's Release

DOYLESTOWN, PA — Doctors, nurses, and staff at Doylestown Hospital had something to cheer about last week, as a coronvirus patient who had been there for more than a week was discharged.

In a video shared by the hospital Friday, dozens of Doylestown Hospital staff can be seen cheering heartily as the recovered patient was discharged. The staff lined the halls to applaud as the patient, who had been in the COVID-19 unit for 11 days, went home.

Doylestown Hospital's Chief Nursing Officer Patti Stover commended the staff, saying they're providing "extraordinary care during this historic pandemic."

"Our nurses share some of the same anxiety over this new disease that everyone in the community experiences; however, they are supporting each other as they care for COVID-19 patients and responding with hope. The celebration of just one COVID patient leaving the hospital is a perfect example of this spirit of unity. We are so proud of how all of our staff have responded," Stover said in a statement to Patch.
