Celebrating Community Partnerships and Advancing Inclusive Health Care in Central Massachusetts
On Tuesday, April 22, Holden Rehabilitation & Skilled Nursing Center, an Oriol Health Care facility, proudly hosted the Wachusett Area Chamber of Commerce’s Business After Hours networking event. It was a wonderful evening of connection, collaboration, and community—perfectly aligned with Oriol Health Care’s mission of “Our family taking care of yours” for over 60 years.
We were thrilled to welcome local business and community leaders to our Holden campus for this lively event. Thanks to the perfect spring weather, guests enjoyed both our beautifully decorated community room and the outdoor patio. This marked our first on-site Chamber event since the pandemic, and the evening served as a joyful return to the in-person gatherings that help strengthen the communities we serve.
A Delicious Evening of Networking and Community Spirit
The event space was warm and welcoming, with vibrant spring décor and a delicious menu that included a mashed potato bar, chili bar, assorted desserts, and local beer and wine. Every detail helped foster a relaxed, friendly atmosphere—something we’ve all missed in recent years.
More than just a social gathering, the evening embodied our commitment to fostering partnerships and delivering person-centered care throughout Central Massachusetts.
We were especially proud to have team members from across our Oriol 360º Continuum of Care in attendance—from leadership and clinical staff to representatives from Holden and Oakdale Rehabilitation & Skilled Nursing Centers, Oriol Therapy Services, Oriol Home Health, and Oriol Financial Services. Their presence highlighted our deep commitment to integrated care and community collaboration.
Celebrating Innovation and Investment in Local Care
Holden Rehab was also honored to be among the first recipients of the Wachusett Area Chamber Business Grant, a program designed to support member organizations delivering impactful services across the region. This generous support helps us continue our tradition of health care excellence, exceptional customer service, and innovative approaches to long-term and post-acute care.
The Oriol Foundation: Looking Ahead with Inclusion in Mind
Guests also got a first look at an exciting new initiative from the Oriol Foundation—the Accessibility Grant for Neurological Inclusion. This upcoming program will support registered nonprofits and public-serving organizations working to make events and services more inclusive for individuals living with neurological and cognitive conditions.
