A Message from President and CEO, Cynthia McGuire
In 1917, a group of Peterborough citizens met to brainstorm ideas for a community hospital. They envisioned a modern, comfortable facility where patients could receive up-to-date treatments. They also wanted to attract skilled providers to the region, to ensure the best care possible.
With the enthusiastic support of the local community, this vision was realized, and in 1923 The Peterborough Hospital (now Monadnock Community Hospital) was born. Since then, MCH has grown to become the regional leader in healthcare, providing both primary and specialty care to patients from Hillsborough and Cheshire Counties and beyond. As our 100th year approaches, it’s a good time to reflect on our history and accomplishments.
Through the decades, our Hospital has grown, expanded its campus and off-site offices, added technologies and specialty care, and has overcome countless challenges. But the 2020 emergence of a deadly pandemic was unique. COVID-19, and its subsequent variants, forced all of us to change behaviors and adopt measures to keep our community safe.
As always, MCH medical staff and employees responded to this most recent threat with compassion, commitment, and creativity. We followed the science, instituted prevention protocols and worked hard to keep our community safe. And although the pandemic was new territory for all of us, I am proud of the way our MCH family rose to the challenge.
The theme of this year’s report to our community, “We are all in this together,” is a tribute to our medical staff and employees for their selfless service and resilience in tough times. But it’s also a tribute to you—our patients, donors, volunteers, and all our friends in the community. We’re deeply grateful for your support of Monadnock Community Hospital. Because of you, we have been able to grow, thrive, and serve the health care needs of our region for nearly 100 years. Together, we are improving the health and well-being of our beloved community: the Monadnock Region.
With heartfelt thanks for all you do,
Cynthia K. McGuire, FACHE
President and CEO
Monadnock Community Hospital
