Hospital Happenings

May is Stroke Awareness Month. We know that the effects of a stroke are as unique as each of our patients, and we also know that many conditions experienced after a stroke respond to specialized rehabilitation. The American Stroke Association specifically recommends intensive, multidisciplinary treatment. We are committed to changing our patients’ lives for the better—that’s why we partner with each of our patients to personalize a treatment plan designed to achieve their goals.

Meet one of our recent successful stroke patients, Fred. His dedicated team including doctors, physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, nurses and his case manager worked diligently to help him get healthier and stronger. Fred, we wish you the best as you continue your recovery! If you or a loved one has suffered a stroke, Encompass Health Braintree’s stroke program has The Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of Approval® for Disease-Specific Care Certification in stroke rehabilitation.
