A Summer Message From Rich

Overview

Dear Friends,

As summer fills our region, I hope this season brings you and your loved ones good health and time to enjoy all our community has to offer. As I reflect on my first months as President and CEO of Monadnock Community Hospital, I am deeply grateful for the warm welcome I have received from patients, staff, donors, and community members. It is an honor to serve this community, and your support continues to make a meaningful difference for our patients, staff, and neighbors. This summer, we are proud to recognize moments that reflect both compassion and progress across our organization.

Our recent National Night Out celebration and our DAISY Award honorees reflect the compassion at the heart of our mission. Our DAISY Award honorees’ extraordinary nursing care exemplifies the kindness and dedication found throughout our hospital.

We are excited to welcome Dr. Alex Martin, who recently joined MCH to lead our Rheumatology practice. We look forward to the experience and expertise he brings to our patients.

Looking ahead, our Health and Wellness Seminar series continues this fall, providing valuable education and opportunities for our community.

Finally, we are happy to share progress on the Jaffrey Family Medicine and Jaffrey Physical Therapy renovations. An open house is planned for October 21 to celebrate these enhanced spaces, which were designed to better serve our patients.

As always, we deeply appreciate the generosity we’ve seen this past year and welcome your continued partnership. If you’re age 70½ or older and interested in supporting Monadnock Community Hospital’s mission, consider a tax-free gift to MCH through a Qualified Charitable Distribution from your IRA.

Wishing you a safe, healthy, and joyful summer.
