Whittier Rehabilitation Hospital, Bradford is an acute rehabilitation hospital that is centrally located on the Massachusetts border of New Hampshire to conveniently service patients throughout New England. Our team of interdisciplinary rehabilitation professionals provides inpatient, outpatient, and home health services.

We take great pride in our commitment to total patient care, professionalism and respect, provided throughout the rehabilitation process, helping us restore, as fully as possible, the skills, confidence and independence our patients need to return to a quality, satisfying life. We have helped thousands of patients return home after an injury or illness, which is illustrated by our superior clinical outcomes.

Whittier Way is outfitted like a city street that will enable patients who have experienced strokes, brain injuries and other disabling conditions to practice activities of daily living in a “real life” setting, while under the supervision of our staff, as a means to return to a self-fulfilling life at home. Whittier Way includes: |
- A cinema that helps patients learn how to get into seats placed very close together
- A bank with an ATM machine, to practice withdrawing money while learning motor skills
- A supermarket, which helps patients in many fashions, from learning proper breathing techniques when lifting a gallon of milk to motor controls and cognitive skills, like counting change
- An automobile to help patients practice getting in and out of the car as well as develop cognitive and motor skills

“Dear Mr. Iannaco, My mother recently was a patient at your facility. I would like to acknowledge the superior level of care she received while a patient at your facility. From the moment she entered to the moment she left, she was treated with the utmost compassion and respect from all the staff members there. I am her daughter and I was also treated in a most kind, caring, and helpful manner by all staff members I encountered.”
“As the result of a minor auto accident, and some related illnesses, I was referred to the Whittier Rehabilitation Center. The quality of care that I received from the caring and highly trained staff of assistants, therapists, nurses and doctors made the critical difference in my recovery. They worked with me and my family to make my stay as productive and short as possible, and to prepare me to be independent when I returned home.I want to thank them publicly for all that they did for me. In particular, I want to extend my thanks to Dr. Alfred Arcidi and Leo Curtin, who clearly set the tone and the expectations for the quality of care. As a resident of Haverhill, I found Whittier to be an outstanding resource.”
“Dear Mr. Iannaco,I have just returned home from Whittier after a three-month stay recovering from knee replacement surgery and a subsequent heart attack. Before any more time goes by, I wanted to write and tell you how grateful I am for the care I received at your facility. It's debatable that spending time in any hospital could be called wonderful, but that's how I felt about my experience at Whittier.Your facility is top-notch—efficient, well-run and clean, with good food (especially the meatloaf!)”
“All the people who worked with me deserve all the credit for my recovery. You have a great facility and while I was there, I must have had the “Cream of the Crop.” You can be very proud of your hospital and staff and I would certainly highly recommend it for anyone needing rehabilitation.God bless all of you for your wonderful work and their patience and kindness and caring. My sincere thanks to all.”
“I just had to add to this questionnaire. I can’t not say enough regarding my stay at Whittier. I was in room 210A. Your employees are the best: Joyce, Agnes, Charity, Grace, Jennifer, Sue, Kim and Lisa, just to name a few.My doctor was truly concerned about my condition following hip replacement surgery. He was in contact with my surgeon on more than one occasion trying to figure out what the problem was.The girls in PT were great! The meals were excellent and housekeeping went the extra mile for me.Thank you for the care provided to speed up my recovery.This is the first time in 3 years that I am without pain, and it’s wonderful.”
