“At Winchester Hospital, our commitment to caring for the community extends beyond the walls of our facility. Just as we provide compassionate care to our patients, donating Thanksgiving baskets to the Woburn Council of Social Concern allows us to extend that same spirit of care to those in need in our community,” said Karen Keaney, VP Patient Care Services. “We believe in supporting and uplifting those around us, and this donation is just one small way we can make a meaningful impact in the lives of others during the holiday season.”
