Spaulding Rehabilitation

Last weekend, Spaulding Outpatient Rehabilitation Centers of Kent Hospital in Providence hosted the 5th Annual Easter Egg Hunt for Children with Special Needs. The event brought more than 350 people together for games, food and photos. With a wheelchair‑accessible egg hunt and special appearances by the Easter Bunny and fairy tale princesses, it was a wonderful way to celebrate spring and community.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the day so special.

Casey Schweber first came to Spaulding Framingham as a physical therapy student for a clinical rotation, unsure what her career would look like, what setting she wanted to work in or which patient population she felt most drawn to.

In the weeks that followed, she says “that uncertainty transformed into clarity,” thanks to the dedicated care teams, collaborative community and deep connection to the mission she experienced.

Now a physical therapist at Spaulding, Casey is running the Boston Marathon with Race for Rehab to honor the impact Spaulding has had on her journey.

Everything changed in an instant for Deirdre Karle, who was hit by a car while walking in Boston’s Seaport District. The 57-year-old was thrown 20 feet in the air, sustaining a life-threatening traumatic brain injury and fracturing her neck. She would spend weeks intubated in a coma.

Dee survived, but her neurosurgeon advised that the busy executive and fitness enthusiast would never work again. But Dee was determined. She came to Spaulding Rehabilitation in Boston to get back on her feet—and back to her life.

With help from her comprehensive and compassionate care team, Dee achieved the ambitious goal of returning to her meaningful job—just one year after the accident that changed her life.

In 2023, Dee was ready to tackle another big challenge—running the Boston Marathon on Spaulding’s official charity team, Race for Rehab. She had the support of Spaulding once again, and her son Jack as her teammate. They were both deeply committed to their goal, raising critical funds and celebrating together after crossing the finish line.

“It’s emotional for me,” she says. “I don’t know where I would be today without the people and the resources at Spaulding.”
