Helping Hands Program continues to show great results

helping hands

Each summer St. Mary’s offers an innovative program for children with hemiplegia – partial paralysis caused by injury to the brain. The Helping Hands program is a summer project that offers children intensive therapy 5-6 hours per day, with age-appropriate play and adaptive skills practice. The program utilizes Constraint Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT), a proven treatment method that focuses on restraining a child’s unaffected arm or leg in a cast or mitten, which drives him or her to use the weaker one during a succession of kid-friendly and engaging exercises in a camp-like environment.   

Special thanks to the MLT Foundation for providing generous support in the form of scholarships for participants to attend the program.  View photos of the Helping Hands program at work on our Facebook page»


WWE Superstars Surprise St. Mary's Kids

WWE visit

WWE Superstars Dean Ambrose and WWE Diva Renee Young visited St. Mary’s Hospital for children recently to surprise the young patients. The high-energy afternoon included visits to each patient floor and plenty of one on one time for the kids to meet some of their favorite wrestlers. Dean and Renee took time to sign autographs and take photos with the children. They also helped the children with a Heavyweight Title Belt coloring activity. Each child received their very own championship belt! 

A special thank you to the WWE for bringing their Superstars and Diva to spend the afternoon with the children at St. Mary’s.  See photos of the visit on our Facebook page»
