Employee Generosity Shines
Thank You to Our Dedicated Employees
In 2023, the year of Monadnock Community Hospital’s centennial, we celebrated an incredible milestone thanks to the generosity and dedication of our staff. A record-breaking 271 employees participated in the annual Employee Giving Campaign, raising an astounding $25,000. This heartfelt contribution will support vital funds at MCH, including the Annual Fund, Reach Out & Read, Employee Resilience Committee, Peter Gosline Scholarship Fund, Monadnock Behavioral Health, and the Dr. Mark Luedke Education Fund.
The success of this campaign is a testament to our employees’ unwavering commitment to enhancing patient care and supporting their colleagues and community. By contributing to the Employee Resilience Committee and the Dr. Mark Luedke Education Fund, our staff helps foster a supportive work environment and further educational opportunities, ensuring MCH remains a center of excellence.
Additionally, the generosity extended towards the Monadnock Behavioral Health fund highlights our collective dedication to providing comprehensive mental health services and resources for our community. The Reach Out & Read initiative, which promotes early childhood literacy, also benefits from this campaign, demonstrating our employees’ commitment to fostering health and well-being beyond hospital walls.
We are immensely grateful to each and every employee who participated in this year’s campaign. Your contributions not only help sustain vital programs but also inspire hope and positive change throughout our community. Together, we are making a meaningful impact and continuing MCH’s legacy of compassion and care for the next 100 years.
Thank you for your remarkable generosity and dedication. Your commitment to our mission is what makes Monadnock Community Hospital truly special.

[post_content] => It's an exciting milestone year for Monadnock Community Hospital as it celebrates its 100th anniversary! Over the past century there have been many inspiring stories shared from those who were born at the hospital, patients who received excellent care, and employees who call the hospital their home away from home. This heartwarming story encapsulates it all, truly coming full circle.
Monadnock Community Hospital is delighted to introduce Jackie Coll, who has been a member of the hospital's dedicated team for over a decade. Born as a twin in the maternity ward of MCH in the 80s, she later gave birth to both of her children in MCH’s Birthing Suite. Jackie started with the organization at New Ipswich Family Medicine, however, after a slight career change she took a new role in a different capacity. As a member of the Information Technology team, her office is now the room that she was born in!
“When our OB unit changed locations within MCH, the old unit rooms were transformed into offices that now house MCH’s IT department where I currently work,” Jackie explains. “The excitement of MCH’s 100th year anniversary inspired my mom and I to look at my old birth photos. To our incredible surprise my office is the very room I started life in! It brings me great honor to work in such a wonderful hospital that has always been and continues to be an enormous part of my life.”
With a background in nursing and information technology, Jackie brings a wealth of experience and a passion for making a positive impact in the lives of patients. This remarkable journey from birth to professional fulfillment encapsulates the hospital's commitment to nurturing and supporting individuals at every stage of life.
"This is a rare and wonderful occurrence," says Cyndee McGuire, President and CEO of Monadnock Community Hospital. "To have an individual born within our walls return years later to work in the same room where they were first cared for as an infant is a testament to the deep-rooted connections that our hospital fosters within the community."
The hospital's centennial year continues to be a time of reflection, gratitude, and forward-looking initiatives. As Monadnock Community Hospital remains committed to providing exceptional care and support to the community, Jackie’s story embodies the spirit of healthcare excellence, community engagement, and compassionate service that has defined the hospital for the past 100 years. Jackie's journey serves as a reminder that the bonds formed within these walls extend far beyond the walls themselves.

[post_content] => On Thursday May 25th 2023, Monadnock Community Hospital had the pleasure of recognizing the region’s Emergency Medical Services (EMS) providers in celebration of National EMS Week which was from May 21-27. Providers from Antrim Fire and Ambulance, Dublin Fire Department, Francestown Fire Department, Greenfield Fire Department, Hancock Fire Department, Jaffrey Fire Department, Jaffrey-Rindge Memorial Ambulance, New Ipswich Fire Department, Peterborough Fire and Rescue, Rindge Fire Department, Souhegan Valley Ambulance, and Temple Fire Department attended the evening’s event at the Monadnock Country Club, where they were honored as vital members of the community. Doctors, physician assistants, and nurses from the MCH Emergency Department were there as well to celebrate their colleagues and friends.
Cyndee McGuire, president and CEO of Monadnock Community Hospital, recognized all of the hard work the local EMS providers do every day. She quoted Fred Rogers from Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood by saying “Fred Rogers is famous for his advice, ‘Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.’ I look out tonight at a sea of helpers. You are often first on the scene to care for people in their greatest time of need. The dedication you have for our neighbors and loved ones is incredibly admirable and we are lucky to have you all as a part of our MCH Family and our community.”
Lauren Morton, Physician Assistant, and a leader in the MCH Emergency Room, thanked everyone for their tireless efforts and for continually giving so much of themselves to help the lives of others. She then had the privilege of presenting the 2023 EMS Lifetime Achievement Award to New Ipswich Fire Department’s Chief Meredith Lund.
Chief Lund, who is soon retiring after over 30 years of service to our community, moved up the ranks in this male dominated profession. She started her career with Souhegan Valley Ambulance Service and later became the first female on the New Ipswich Fire Department team. In 2016 she was voted in as the Chief becoming one of only four female Fire Chiefs in the state of New Hampshire and the first in New Ipswich. Chief Lund was surprised and moved by this award and she presented an inspiring acceptance speech with a brief overview of her career. She shared that she is retiring to spend more time with her grandchildren and to travel the country as she continues her work fighting wildfires. She thanked all of her colleagues and friends in the room, some of whom she taught when she was an instructor with the NH Fire Academy & EMS, while others she began her training with in the early 1990s and has been friends with ever since.
The Annual EMS Recognition event was the first one held since 2019 (before the pandemic) and Monadnock Community Hospital was pleased to be able to honor the community Emergency Medical Services this way.
