Milford Regional Receives Employment Award from Massachusetts Clubhouse Coalition

Milford Regional Medical Center has received the 2017 Annual Employer Award from the Massachusetts Clubhouse Coalition, celebrating its employer partnership with Crossroads Clubhouse.

The award recognizes the hospital for choosing to diversify their workforce by employing adults and young adults with psychiatric disabilities through Crossroads Clubhouse, an employment and recovery center located in Hopedale.  Currently, three adults from Crossroads are employed at Milford Regional.

“It has been a pleasure working with Crossroads to help find gainful employment for their clients, give them the opportunity to showcase their skills and find a home with Milford Regional,” says Leisa Meade, human resource generalist at Milford Regional. “The hospital has gained skilled, loyal and dedicated employees, and so much more.”

In addition, Milford Regional received citations from the state legislature, which were presented by Sen. Ryan Fattman and Rep. Kevin Kuros.
