Patients are encouraged to explore new activities as well as return to activities they enjoyed before their illness or injury. Participation in sports and recreation can speed the recovery process, and it shows patients that their disability doesn’t have to keep them from an active and enjoyable lifestyle. Spaulding opened its first adaptive sports programs in Boston and on Cape Cod in 2001 and expanded to the North Shore in 2009. Spaulding Adaptive Sports Centers are open to all individuals in the community who are living with disabilities. Staff members help each participant find the most appropriate activities for his or her interests, capabilities and needs. Children and adults can participate in Spaulding Adaptive Sports programs under the supervision of adaptive sports professionals as well as Spaulding therapists, providing the perfect environment to try a new sport or get back to one you have always loved.
Our trained staff will help identify activities most appropriate for each participant, based on his or her capabilities.
