Baystate Health

One week ago, Baystate Health was proud to participate in the record-breaking “World’s Largest Pancake Breakfast,” connecting with more than 10,000 community members during Stroke Awareness Month. 🥞❤️

Representing Baystate Health and Baystate Noble Hospital were Chrissy Humason, BS, RN/EMT-P, Nursing Supervisor and Stroke Program Coordinator, and Eileen Dolan, RN, CQI, who shared important stroke education and prevention resources with attendees throughout the morning.

The event created meaningful opportunities for conversation, with many attendees sharing personal stories about stroke survival and recovery.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to learn more about stroke prevention and recognition. Community outreach like this helps bring important health education directly to the people we serve every day - advancing our communities' health for all.

We are all smiles this because we are bringing it back to last year’s Rays of Hope - Walk & Run Toward the Cure of Breast Cancer! 💕

From the inspiring stories to the incredible community support, every moment reminded us why this event means so much. We’re officially 1️⃣5️⃣0️⃣ days away from the 33rd Annual Rays of Hope Walk & Run, happening on Sunday, October 18, 2026 — registration is OPEN! 🏃

Join thousands of participants as we come together to support breast cancer research, celebrate survivors, honor loved ones, and spread hope throughout our community.
