Founded in 1971 as the Massachusetts Rehabilitation Hospital, Spaulding Rehabilitation is one of the largest rehabilitation facilities in the U.S., providing comprehensive rehabilitation treatment.

What an amazing night celebrating and supporting pediatric rehabilitation medicine! Thanks to our generous sponsors and donors, Spaulding's inaugural Strength Soiree has raised more than $620,000 to help our youngest, most vulnerable patients come back from some of the most challenging medical conditions and return to being kids. Thank you to event co-chairs Dan Jones and Matt Pullen, emcee Lisa Hughes, our sponsors, including presenting sponsors Michele and Howard Kessler, Spaulding leaders and clinicians, and our incredible comeback kids and their families, for making this such a meaningful evening for an important cause.
Thanks to the extraordinary conservation efforts of Mass General Brigham clinicians and staff, we will resume our full procedural schedule starting today, Friday, October 18, without any case deferrals. We will continue to monitor IV fluid usage and supply closely, with conservation measures remaining in place to ensure safe patient care. We appreciate your ongoing support and will keep you updated on any further developments.

Due to a nationwide IV fluid shortage caused by Hurricane Helene, Mass General Brigham regrettably must defer additional scheduled procedures. While we’ve received additional shipments, our current supply is still limited and our projected deliveries of fluids are still insufficient to meet the full demands for care across our system. Thanks to the extraordinary conservation and response efforts of our clinicians and staff, we remain confident in our ability to safely care for all patients who require our immediate care. We will continue to keep you updated as our response continues.
As we close out #HispanicHeritageMonth, we honor Leon Morales-Quezada, MD, MSc, PhD, MPH, a physician-investigator at Spaulding Rehabilitation from Mexico. His research focuses on noninvasive neuromodulation to assist with neurological and cognitive rehab, the role of placebos in pain control and phenotyping the placebo effect. Dr. Morales-Quezada credits his cultural background for his resilience, perseverance and empathy, which help drive his work. Learn more: http://spklr.io/6041vY4W.
As healthcare providers across the country continue to confront the national IV fluid shortage following the devastating effects of Hurricane Helene, Mass General Brigham has made the difficult decision to defer some non-emergent, elective procedures requiring certain IV fluids from Sunday, October 13, through at least Wednesday, October 16. While we strive to minimize any impact on patients, these measures will ensure we are able to care for those in immediate need. Due to the unpredictable nature of this situation, we do not know when our supply of IV fluids will improve but we are closely monitoring and will continuously evaluate to ensure we can return to normal operations as soon as possible. We are contacting affected patients and will work to reschedule them as soon as we are able.
A new study by Mass General Brigham researchers reveals that a daily multivitamin may delay age-related cognitive decline by up to 2 years. Researchers stress that vitamins complement, not replace, a healthy diet. Learn more: http://spklr.io/6045v6tW
