In lieu of exchanging holidays gifts with each other, members of BWH’s Patient Care Services “adopted” a few less fortunate area families for the holidays. Ages, sizes, needs and wishes of family members were obtained and Patient Care Services management and administrative staff bought and wrapped dozens of gifts and donated cash to match the needs of the families, who could not have otherwise afforded a holiday meal or toys for their children. Gifts were presented to the very appreciative families the week before Christmas.
