## Eskaton driver stands up for the disabled

**Linda Neal, Residents Services Director at [Eskaton Village Carmichael](http://www.eskaton.org/village-carmichael/future-needs.html), received this letter about our driver, Cindee Burns, noting that persistence does pay off:**

I was so terribly proud of Cindee Burns on Thursday, April 30th. She attempted to park the medical transport van outside Sutter Hospital downtown and was prevented from doing that by a parking attendant. Cindee was very firm, but professional in standing up for Eskaton and the disabled, as she had a 102-year-old wheelchair patient to pick up. Because of Cindee’s sincere persistence, the parking attendant’s supervisor agreed with her reasoning and we were allowed to park outside the hospital, rather than 1 ½ blocks away.

~ Eskaton Village Carmichael resident

**Way to go, Cindee! We appreciate how you look out for the comfort and safety of our residents.**
