Breast Cancer Awareness at Williamsbridge
On Oct. 12, staff and residents at Williamsbridge Center on Tomlinson Avenue came together to create \"Hope\" hats for Pink Day as the 77-bed nursing facility remembered those who fought and continue to fight breast cancer.
\"So many residents here know or once knew someone who either survived breast cancer or sadly didn’t,\" said Monique Sampson, recreation director. \"These days we think about them and their families and hope they win the fight against this horrible disease. This is what Pink Day is all about.\"

Care. Support. Positive Outcomes. Centers Health Care.
Centers Health Care provides rehabilitation, skilled nursing and long-term care for people with a wide range of needs. Whether someone is recovering from surgery, managing an illness or simply needs more support than can be provided at home, our staff is there to help.
The goal is not exactly the same for everyone. It may be returning home, becoming stronger, staying independent or simply feeling better and more comfortable from one day to the next. There will be progress, setbacks and difficult days along the way. Our job is to be there through all of it, and to help each patient or resident get as far as he or she can.
Sometimes that progress comes in large steps. More often, it comes in small ones. Either way, every step matters.
Our Steps to Home series follows patients through rehabilitation and the journey from hospital to home:
