Let's play ball! ⚾

This , we are bringing it back to and Health New England night at the Westfield Starfires game!

Two weeks ago, Baystate Noble Hospital's Chief Nursing Officer, Pamela Stevens, had the privilege to throw out the ceremonial first pitch, and let's just say, she did not disappoint — this photo sequence says it all!

Here's to more great summer evenings, filled with Baystate pride. 💙

One spark can change a life... 🎇

As we celebrate America's 250th anniversary next weekend, encourages everyone to make safety part of the festivities.

As many know, fireworks can cause devastating injuries ranging from burns and facial trauma to vision-threatening eye injuries and amputations. Dr. Seth Gemme, Chair of Emergency Medicine, sees the impact of these injuries firsthand and offers simple advice: enjoy the show, but leave the fireworks to the professionals!

In Massachusetts, fireworks are illegal to possess or set off, and the risks simply aren't worth it. 🚫

This Fourth of July, celebrate by keeping yourself, your family, and your neighbors safe. Attend a public fireworks display, watch from a safe distance, and leave the pyrotechnics to the experts.

Let's celebrate the milestone, enjoy the memories, and put safety first! 🇺🇸
