This holiday season, Spaulding Rehabilitation came together to support local communities in a big way:

• Another drive collected 1,000 lbs of food and $2,250 in donations, helping programs like Harvest on Vine provide fresh fruits and vegetables to more than 500 families in Charlestown.
• Spaulding Outpatient Center – Salem donated two full carts of items to The Salem Pantry, which provides healthy food at no cost to local residents.

For Michael Joy, executive director of Spaulding Nursing and Therapy Center Brighton, the mission of Spaulding Brighton is deeply personal. Growing up, he watched his mother care for residents as a nursing assistant, inspiring his own path in healthcare. As a trained respiratory therapist, he’s seen firsthand how every role contributes to patient care.

“When I walk the hallways here, I’m proud to be surrounded by people—staff and patients alike—who are motivated, positive, and striving for their goals,” Michael says. Read more about Spaulding Brighton: http://spklr.io/6181BMJfW
