He was born in Bennington ninety years ago and has lived through war, depressions, and more than one pandemic. He’s been a bank director, mill worker, union president, hospital volunteer, and he served 38 years in the National Guard. Through it all, he’s maintained his optimistic outlook. Sam and his beloved late-wife Linny raised four children, all of whom were born at and received care through Monadnock Community Hospital. “MCH has always been our hospital for primary care, for emergencies—for everything,” says Sam. When he started not feeling well in the fall of 2021, he knew who to call. His nurse at Monadnock Internal Medicine explained to him that with the increasing number of COVID cases, taking a trip to the Emergency Department for his symptoms could potentially cause greater harm than good. Being at a higher risk for becoming seriously ill with COVID, his medical team presented a safer way to treat Sam. “It wasn’t safe for me to go to the hospital, so, instead, MCH came to me,” says Sam. “They have great paramedics and a van with all the equipment for testing and diagnosing. One of the pararmedics, Josh, examined me and was able to take blood work right here in my home. He then worked quickly with my doctor to have a prescription called in, and within a few hours I started the medication and began feeling like a whole new person.” MCH’s Mobile Integrated Health Care team is filling a critical need in the community by providing medical services outside hospital walls. Coordinating with a patient’s primary care physician, our paramedics provide a host of diagnostic services, including physical assessments and specimen collections.“The MCH Mobile Integrated Health Program was a godsend for me during the pandemic.” Sam Zachos, Peterborough, NH
“We can provide up to six calls a day, assessing, testing, and treating vulnerable patients who may be housebound, frail, or otherwise unable to travel,” says Josh Patrick, Mobile Integrated Health Paramedic. “While there are a few other hospitals in the state providing services like these, MCH has one of the most comprehensive programs, offering an array of services to a diverse population.” Most importantly, MCH is able to deliver medical excellence to vulnerable patients in the safety and comfort of their homes. “I always had great respect for MCH, but this program has exceeded my expectations,” Sam says. “I was a volunteer there for ten years and met so many wonderful people who have continued to make me feel appreciated and loved. I am very grateful that, although I can no longer travel easily, I can still be connected to my caregivers—now they can even come to me!” ) [_page_sections_2_wysiwyg] => Array ( [0] => field_5a79c5dfc5cca ) [page_sections_2_width] => Array ( [0] => normal ) [_page_sections_2_width] => Array ( [0] => field_5af99fbbc9de1 ) [page_sections_4_section_title] => Array ( [0] => ) [_page_sections_4_section_title] => Array ( [0] => field_5a79c51c87bb0 ) [page_sections_4_section_text] => Array ( [0] => ) [_page_sections_4_section_text] => Array ( [0] => field_5ad4c99e98b3b ) [page_sections_4_posts_selection] => Array ( [0] => auto_taxonomy_terms ) [_page_sections_4_posts_selection] => Array ( [0] => field_5e99c1d934e7f ) [page_sections_4_post_type] => Array ( [0] => post ) [_page_sections_4_post_type] => Array ( [0] => field_5e99c7a534e80 ) [page_sections_4_taxonomy] => Array ( [0] => tag ) [_page_sections_4_taxonomy] => Array ( [0] => field_5e99c7e134e82 ) [page_sections_4_terms] => Array ( [0] => patient stories, community benefit, mobile integrated health ) [_page_sections_4_terms] => Array ( [0] => field_5e99c82334e83 ) [page_sections_4_posts_limit] => Array ( [0] => -1 ) [_page_sections_4_posts_limit] => Array ( [0] => field_5e99c85934e84 ) [page_sections_5_section_title] => Array ( [0] => ) [_page_sections_5_section_title] => Array ( [0] => field_5ada5134d3021 ) [page_sections_5_wysiwyg] => Array ( [0] => ) [_page_sections_5_wysiwyg] => Array ( [0] => field_5a79c5dfc5cca ) [page_sections_5_width] => Array ( [0] => normal ) [_page_sections_5_width] => Array ( [0] => field_5af99fbbc9de1 ) )
