The first few weeks at Spaulding's new location represented a steep learning curve for staff while also reinforcing how critical top-notch care is for Boston and beyond.
Updated 2 hours agoThe doors to the Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital weren't open yet when the Boston Marathon bombings occurred.
Spaulding was in the process of moving into a new location in Charlestown, and it would be another 12 days after the attack before staff and patients would be working in the state-of the art facility. Those first few weeks represented a steep learning curve for everyone at the hospital, while also reinforcing how critical top-notch care is for Boston and beyond.
"It was the first time that I had to work with a mother and daughter at the same time, two brothers at the same time and a husband and wife at the same time," said Dr. David Crandell, with the medical director of the amputee program. He and longtime physical therapist Urvashi Chogle shared what it was like during that time and what Spaulding has learned in the 10 years since."There were so many aspects that even we didn't know as therapists, like, you know, just understanding that some of them may have hearing issues or hearing loss because of the trauma," Chogle said.
