South Shore Health is the only organization in southeastern Massachusetts recognized to perform the specialized ultrasound.

The Friends of South Shore Health’s 2022 Kickin’ Up Country for Home Care event raised more than $28,500 to support Home Care services.

South Shore Hospital, part of South Shore Health, has received an Innovator Award from the editors of Healthcare Innovation for its groundbreaking work in Clinical Pharmacy Practice by improving the medication reconciliation process.

More than 400 people attended the spectacular event, held October 21 at Union Point in Weymouth.

The Weymouth hospital is one of four in Massachusetts to earn the competitive award.

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.

The new unit, located on the first floor near the hospital’s Main Entrance, doubles short-stay capacity from 10 to 20 beds.

South Shore Health’s Nurse Residency Program has earned Practice Transition Accreditation Program® (PTAP) accreditation from the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC). This designation - the highest level awarded by the ANCC - recognizes organizations that demonstrate excellence in preparing new nurses for successful transition into practice.

Rating designates Weymouth hospital among the best in Greater Boston and the U.S. for safety.

On Saturday, April 27, more than 200 cowboys and cowgirls came together “As One” to attend the 16th annual Kickin’ Up Country for Home Care event hosted by The Friends of South Shore Health.
