28-year-old Nathan Simons just became Boston Children's Hospital first full-time employee with down syndrome. A full circle moment because he was actually a patient at this very hospital as a child. He was treated for a heart problem when he was a baby.
Nathan was part of a two-year apprenticeship with the Down syndrome program. After two years the hospital decided to keep him on board because they loved him so much. Today his responsibilities include getting rooms ready every morning, greeting patients, maintaining supplies and other administrative duties.
