Mary Free Bed Halloween fun
Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation hospital once again made sure that nobody misses out on the Halloween fun.

Pediatric patients and their families enjoyed a haunted "scare-apy" garden, featuring festive food, games, and trick-or-treating fun.
Hospital staff and their families decorated dozens of tables and handed out candy to make sure they got to experience Halloween festivities. One former patient even dressed as a Mary Free Bed physical therapist!
