Hospital Week at Kent has been a great reminder of the people who make this place so special.

From grab-and-go breakfasts to wellbeing events, and a generous Girl Scouts of Southeastern New England Cookie donation, we’re grateful for every opportunity to celebrate and thank our incredible team members for all they do each day.

Big cheers for nurse Madison Wholey, who received a well-deserved recognition at the Boston Red Sox Nurses Night game.

Madison represented Kent Hospital during the pregame ceremony honoring nurses from across the community—and the night became even more special with a surprise proposal to her girlfriend.

We’re so proud to have Madison on our team and grateful for the compassionate care she brings to patients every single day. Congratulations, Madison, and thank you for representing us so well!
