The South Shore Health annual Golf Classic, held on May 20, generated a record-breaking $320,000 – with all proceeds earmarked for the organization’s implementation of Behavioral Health services and initiatives.

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.

This prestigious recognition highlights South Shore Hospital’s commitment to delivering high-quality, advanced care with kindness and compassion to patients across the South Shore.

The October 21 signature event will raise money for The Grayken Center for Treatment at South Shore Health.

South Shore Hospital Center for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery has been accredited as a Comprehensive Center by the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program (MBSAQIP®), a joint Quality Program of the American College of Surgeons (ACS) and the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS).

Despite 2020’s numerous challenges, attendees of this signature event delivered on their promise to help people with substance use disorders and behavioral health needs.
