There was no way Long, an experienced trauma nurse, was not going to stop.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAn elderly gentleman was moaning, but he was coherent enough and he was asking questions. He didn\u2019t know where he was; he didn\u2019t remember anything, but he was talking, so I thought, \u2018He is ok at the moment.\u2019 So my attention went to his wife. \u2026 As soon as I saw her, I was like, \u2018Oh, this isn\u2019t looking good.\u2019\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Long found the woman nonresponsive. She had a shallow pulse, then no pulse, and he began CPR, continuing for 30 minutes until paramedics arrived. All the while, he asked the man, who had complained of back pain, to lie still. A short time after paramedics arrived, the woman died.<\/p>\n<p>Long turned his focus to the man, helping first responders strap him to a board, load him on to a stretcher and push up a slight hill toward a waiting ambulance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow\u2019s my wife doing?\u2019\u2019 the man asked.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sorry, sir, your wife died,\u2019\u2019 Long told him. After working 5.5 years in a Level I Trauma center in San Antonio, Texas, he learned that sharing direct, compassionate and truthful information in crisis situations is often best.<\/p>\n<p>As paramedics loaded the man into the helicopter, Long asked: \u201cWhere you taking him?\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>When Long heard the helicopter was going to UCHealth\u2019s Level I Trauma Center at Memorial Hospital Central, Long, who was then working on an orthopedic floor at Memorial, thought: \u201cHe\u2019ll probably end up on my floor.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Sure enough, when Long went to work a few days later, the man he had helped on the highway was there. Long went into the man\u2019s room and introduced himself.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe vaguely remembered me, and I kind of told him everything that had happened and I told him I wanted to check in on him and see how he was doing,\u2019\u2019 Long said. Slowly, the man started to piece together what had happened that early November day near U.S. Highway 285 and Highway 24.<\/p>\n<p>In the hospital room, the man thanked Long for his help on the two-lane highway, and for being direct with him about the death of his wife. The man also asked Long about the conditions on the road that November day, and Long told him the wind was so strong that it blew his truck around. Long said he believes the wind pushed the motorcycle off the road and once off the road, the motorcycle flipped.<\/p>\n<p>Long became a nurse, he said, \u201cto help people.\u2019\u2019 It\u2019s that simple.<\/p>\n<p>That day in November, out on a two-lane road in the middle of nowhere, there was no way Long was not going to stop to help. It\u2019s just what he does.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\" align=\"center\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif\"><div class=\"su-row\">\n<div class=\"su-column su-column-size-2-3 su-column-centered\"><div class=\"su-column-inner su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\" align=\"center\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;color: #930718\">You Make Extraordinary Possible<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\" align=\"center\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif\">Together, we recognize and honor the qualities within ourselves by shining a spotlight on how each and every one of us improve lives in big ways and small.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\" align=\"center\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif\"><a href=\"https:\/\/uchealthpoints.isrewards.com\/Recognition\/Award\/FormFlex.aspx?pr=JAwX5qZPSOA=&#038;m=N\" class=\"su-button su-button-style-flat\" style=\"color:#FFFFFF;background-color:#A22343;border-color:#821c36;border-radius:56px\" target=\"_self\"><span style=\"color:#FFFFFF;padding:0px 26px;font-size:20px;line-height:40px;border-color:#be657c;border-radius:56px;text-shadow:none\"> Share a story<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\" align=\"center\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif\"><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fast roadside response, good bedside manner A guy running across U.S. Highway 24 in Park County caught the attention of Will Long as he was driving home to Colorado Springs from Lake City, where he\u2019d been chopping wood so his mother and sister would be warm in the winter.
