St. Charles’ annual Christmas Tree Lighting was another memorable event as we honored one of our pediatric rehab patients, Belle. Diagnosed with a soft tissue sarcoma, Belle had her leg amputated and received her physical therapy at Catholic Health’s Physical Therapy & Rehabilitation in Commack. She wrote a book about her journey called “Belle the Brave,” and we were honored to host a book signing for her! Belle is one special girl whose courage and strength is to be admired!

Meet Elton, a recent patient from St. Charles’
Inpatient Rehabilitation unit. Elton suffered a significant spinal surgery, but with his hard work, determination, along with the help of all of his St Charles therapists and devices such as the Andago, Elton was able to walk out of St Charles and be with his family. The Andago is an overground bodyweight support gait training system.
St. Charles’ rehab has one of only 130 in the nation! Patients like Elton have benefited from this amazing technology. Way to go Elton!

St. Charles' EMS committee provided EMS first responders with the most delicious pies generously donated by Briermere Farms. Pie distribution for local EMS first responders to continue as long as pies remain available. With each pie, a note of thanks and poem was attached:

This Thanksgiving, this pie is more than a sweet –
It’s a bite of partnership, warm and complete!

From EMS wheels turning into our hospital door,
We’ve got your back today and evermore

A huge thanks to Briermere Farms who really came through,
Baking and donating each pie just for you!

Made with care, with heart, with pride
A hero’s desert with gratitude inside.

So take a breather, relax, and unwind
Kick back, breathe deep – find some “you” time.

For all you do, the whole year through,
We’re beyond grateful and thankful for you!

Thanksgiving Blessings from your
St. Charles Family
