EDISON – Doctors, nurses and other health professionals got a chance to laugh with comic Tracy Morgan during a recent event held at Hackensack Meridian JFK Johnson Rehabilitation Institute.
The event served as a big thank you to the physicians, nurses and therapists who cared for him after he was seriously injured in a 2014 accident.
The former Saturday Night Live star also met with current patients and their family members to share the story of his recovery after being in a coma. Morgan has been highly supportive of JFK Johnson since his accident and regularly gives out the “Tracy Morgan Award for Excellence in Rehabilitation Nursing” to shine a light on the specialty of rehabilitation nursing.
