A multi-talented Broadway, film and television star, Ms. Henderson warmly greeted each patient and their family members, posing for photos, answering questions, and sharing stories of her career and life.

“The visit by Ms. Henderson was delightful for our patients and staff,” said Joanne Curry, Patient Advocate at Norwood Hospital. “We all know that keeping patients feeling positive goes a long way in the healing process. Florence brightened everyone’s day and we appreciate how therapeutic that can be for our patients.”
