Case Notes 1 Chuck Hooper

Dear Sir,

Re: Mr. Chuck Hooper; 37 years

Mr. Chuck Hooper requires animal-assisted therapy to continue his rehabilitation. He is currently recovering from paralysis after a car collision.

Mr. Hooper was admitted to the Sphinx Rehabilitation Centre on January 25, 2024, following a car collision on January 15, 2024, which resulted in a subdural haemorrhage affecting the motor section of his brain, complete left-sided paralysis, impaired speech, and double vision. After spending a month in critical condition, he was discharged on March 1, 2024. Despite receiving physiotherapy and home care, there was initially no progress. Emotional distress was evident, with his wife Marcy found crying, and their dog Duke being cared for by a neighbor.

On March 15, Duke was brought home, which coincided with Mr. Hooper’s first attempts to stand. Although he fell initially, he began showing gradual improvement. By April 3, his health had deteriorated again, but he continued making progress with short walking steps, reaching a significant milestone on April 13, when he walked ten meters. Subsequent intensive physiotherapy with weights, pulleys, and whirlpool baths, and assistance from Sphinx Rehabilitation Centre, have led to notable improvements.

On August 4, Mr. Hooper walked 200 meters to his local branch office and worked for two hours, showing determination to return to full-time work by October. His GP, Dr. Ivan Hughes, has observed that Duke has been pivotal in Mr. Hooper’s emotional and physical recovery.

Mr. Hooper’s progress, coupled with his strong emotional bond with Duke, suggests that animal-assisted therapy would be highly beneficial for his continued rehabilitation. Your involvement in providing this therapy is kindly requested.

If you require any further information about Mr Hooper or Duke which would help your provide the best care, kindly contact me.

Yours faithfully,

Ms. Emma Noa
Charge Nurse
