National Recovery Month: Supporting Those Affected by Substance Use Disorders |
|
|
|
In honor of Overdose Awareness Day on August 31st, over 22,000 purple flags were planted on the Boston Common, each one in remembrance of a life lost to overdose in Massachusetts between 2012 and 2023.
At BMC, we work every day to improve the lives of people with substance use disorders through expert clinical care, research, education, and policy and advocacy efforts. This National Recovery Month, we not only remember the lives lost to substance use disorder, but also shine a spotlight on the fact that treatment works and that we can help make long-term recovery a reality for individuals and families.
BMC hosts events throughout the month where you can learn, participate, and reflect on ways we all can work to de-stigmatize substance use disorders and normalize treatment. |

BMC Patient Receives Life-Saving Surgery and Important Access to Food Pantry |
|
|
|
Three years ago, while receiving world-class care at BMC, Valerie Campbell engaged with our renowned neurosurgery team and wraparound services, like our Preventative Food Pantry, to ensure she got personalized care that met her holistic needs. By combining innovative treatments with compassionate care, BMC is improving the health of our communities. “At BMC, I am home. Those are my people, my area, my surroundings. When it comes to my health and how BMC put me back together, it gave me a new perspective on life.” |

That’s a Wrap on The Second Annual EQTY 2024: Accelerating Health Justice |
|
On September 12, community leaders and health equity experts from across the nation came together to advance racial health equity and ignite positive change at our annual health equity summit, EQTY 2024. A highlight was the keynote address from Pulitzer Prize-winning Nikole Hannah-Jones, creator of the 1619 Project, who stated "Black people don’t just so happen to be more sick than other people. We live in a society that makes us more sick, and if we don’t understand that, then we try to fix Black people instead of the systems and conditions." The address aligned with the theme of reckoning with and working to break the constructs of our country’s past and set the stage for fruitful conversations on topics such as reimagining the role of hospitals to address social determinants of health, workforce development as a pathway to economic mobility, and achieving access to transformational treatments. At BMC, we know health equity is foundational to community wellbeing and requires transformative thinking, which is why we continue to spark important conversations with leaders in healthcare, government, public policy, and business. See how BMC is leading and advancing a national conversation around health equity |

Many years ago, Boston Medical saved my life. When I got to Boston Medical, I was there at the time I was [an addict]. That was years ago. Today, I'm clean and sober. I've been clean for many years after that. But they saved my life there. And I want to say thank you. |
