As healthcare providers across the country continue to confront the national IV fluid shortage following the devastating effects of Hurricane Helene, Mass General Brigham has made the difficult decision to defer non-emergent, elective procedures requiring IV fluids from Sunday, October 13, through at least Wednesday, October 16. While we strive to minimize any impact on patients, these measures will ensure we are able to care for those in immediate need. Due to the unpredictable nature of this situation, we do not know when our supply of IV fluids will improve but we are closely monitoring and will continuously evaluate to ensure we can return to normal operations as soon as possible. We are contacting affected patients and will work to reschedule them as soon as we are able.

Throughout his life, Richard Campana was committed to supporting our hospital's mission to provide exceptional community-based care. With the establishment of the Richard A. Campana Trust, his legacy will live on through the compassionate care we provide to our patients every day. Pictured here are Mr. Campana’s niece, Heidi, and her husband, James, commemorating his generous gift, which led to the naming of a patient room in our newly opened 5 East unit.

In honor of #NationalRecoveryMonth, last month 2,125 flags were placed on our hospital’s front lawn, honoring the Massachusetts residents who tragically lost their lives to opioid overdose in 2023. Last week, our hospital staff and community members gathered in the Shipley Auditorium to hear from Newton Mayor Ruthanne Fuller and members of SOAR Natick, a support group for parents with children suffering from opioid addiction. We stand with those affected by substance use and are committed to raising awareness and offering support to our community.
