BMC’s Yawkey building doors are now closed as an entrance as part of our ongoing efforts to enhance our campus and provide you with the best clinical care.

All patients and visitors on our main campus must enter our hospital via Shapiro, Menino, or Moakley buildings, where they will be greeted by team members at a new centralized check-in desk before continuing to the hospital. We are excited to welcome you and appreciate your patience as we improve our facilities.

Venous Access is when a catheter is placed inside of a vein, usually in the arm, neck, or chest, so that medication can be delivered directly into the blood, without repeatedly puncturing blood vessels.
