Campus Construction Update Regarding Driveway Access to the Yawkey, Menino, and Moakley buildings.

We will soon begin repaving the main driveway outside the Yawkey, Menino, and Moakley buildings. Weather permitting, driveway closures are scheduled for the following weekends, from Friday at 8 p.m. through Sunday at 8 p.m., on the following dates: Sept. 19-21, Sept. 26-28, Oct. 17-19, and Oct. 24-26. 

Access Changes During Construction:

Pedestrian Access: Patients and visitors will be able to enter Moakley through the entrance on East Concord Street.    

Vehicle Access: Vehicular traffic should use the designated drop-off and pick-up area on East Concord Street or the 710 Albany Street Garage. Signage will indicate where metered parking has been blocked off to create a drop-off/pick-up zone (on E. Concord between Harrison and the Moakley side entrance).

Neurological Tests for Spinal Fractures

The doctor evaluates the spinal fracture patient's ability to move, feel, and sense the position of all their limbs. In addition, the doctor will test the patient's reflexes to help determine whether there has been an injury to the spinal cord or individual nerves.
