Hospital Holds Prom For Teen Patient Recovering From Accident

Staff at a Nebraska hospital host prom for a patient who can’t go to his. While in Nebraska Medical Center recovering from a devastating car accident, Austen Roberts wasn’t able to go to his high school prom. The medical team treating Roberts didn’t want him to miss out on such an important event, so they hosted a prom just for Roberts and his girlfriend, Hannah Carlyle.

The Child and Family Development team at Nebraska Medicine put together the event and added all the right touches. There were decorations, a dance floor, corsages, a photo booth and snacks. They even made one Roberts’ favorite treats: cosmic brownies.

Hospital staff joined in on the celebration, dancing and showing off their best dance moves. Then to cap the event off, Roberts and Carlyle were crowned prom queen and king. It may not have been the prom the young couple originally wanted to go to, but it was definitely an event they’ll never forget.
