Egg Hunt! Since our hunt for four leaf clovers had more than 100 responses we decided another contest had to happen! This month we are having an egg hunt! In this edition of Insight, you will find eggs hidden throughout. Once you have found them all, email EMA@excelahealth.org with your answer. The first three with the correct response will win a prize! Good luck, and happy hunting!

Therapy Dog of the Month April’s Therapy Dog of the Month is Golden Retriever Apryl. Apryl would have turned 5 years old April 9, but sadly, she passed away in late February. She loved visiting patients at Excela Latrobe Hospital on select Sundays with her owner Wendy Cernansky. Along with Excela, Apryl also enjoyed visiting Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh and Forest Hills Elementary School, where her human sibling, Malena, is in sixth grade. Apryl will be missed by her family and patients she visited. The joy she brought them will not be furgotten.
