With the region experiencing yet another surge in cases of COVID-19, the Mobile Integrated Health (MIH) program is participating in an innovative clinical trial that brings a much talked about drug to treat COVID-19 (remdesivir) to patients at home, instead of at the hospital.

South Shore Health has been honored with the prestigious Health Information Management Systems Society (HIMSS) Stage 7 award for inpatient and outpatient services and technology. The HIMSS Stage 7 award recognizes the hospital for outstanding inpatient and outpatient services and technology.

The new program is designed to provide intensive, structured care for individuals who need more support than traditional outpatient therapy, while still allowing participants to live at home and continue their daily routines.

Dr. Allen Smith, MD, MS, President and CEO of South Shore Health, and Pamela O’Leary, Chair of the South Shore Health Board of Directors, along with other senior leaders, recently welcomed Massachusetts Executive Office of Health and Human Services Secretary Kate Walsh for a tour of South Shore Hospital.

Two programs within the Grayken Center for Treatment at South Shore Health will transition to a new, spacious location at 797 Main Street, Weymouth. Learn more about the new location of the bridge program and perinatal behavioral health program.
