Monadnock Community Hospital's Mobile Integrated Healthcare program received the Monadnock Community Health Impact Award during the recent community health fair. The program stands out for its comprehensive approach to healthcare delivery, particularly in rural areas.
Key highlights of the award-winning program include:
- Providing primary care patient services
- Sending community paramedics directly to patients' homes
- Offering services like wound care and vaccinations
According to the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services, this program is remarkably effective. In 2022, it represented 49 percent of total visits across the state's 12 Mobile Integrated Healthcare programs, making it one of the busiest in New Hampshire.
Sean Burke, The Sentinel's president and COO, praised the program for "meeting a dire need in our community" by reaching patients where they are and improving both health and social factors.
The award was accepted by Joshua Patrick, lead community paramedic clinician, and Karen Bednarski, dispatcher, highlighting the team's crucial role in addressing healthcare gaps in the Monadnock Region.

Senator Maggie Hassan recognized Mary Lawler of Jaffrey as January's Granite Stater of the Month for her lifetime of service, including 12 years of volunteering at Monadnock Community Hospital (MCH).
Mary, an 86-year-old former nurse, initially began volunteering after a 50-year career at the hospital, inspired by her mother who also worked there as a nurse. She now contributes primarily to the hospital's human resources department, welcoming new employees and fostering a supportive community.
Senator Hassan praises Mary's dedication and her embodiment of the "Granite State spirit" - a commitment to service and making a difference regardless of age. Mary's story highlights the positive impact individuals can have through volunteering and community involvement.

Peterborough, NH – Pamela A. Stetzer, D.O., F.A.C.O.O.G, an obstetrician at Monadnock OB/GYN, was recently named one of New Hampshire’s Top Doctors for 2012 in a reader survey conducted by New Hampshire Magazine and featured in the magazine’s April 2012 issue.
The magazine’s Top Doctors list reflects the opinions of New Hampshire patients who are polled annually and asked to recommend the best caregivers in a variety of specialties.
“I am deeply honored to receive this recognition from my patients,” said Dr. Stetzer. “I know that when it comes to obstetrical care, trust is everything, and that makes this award even more meaningful.”
Dr. Stetzer joined the staff of Monadnock OB/GYN in March 2008. Previously, she was in practice with Greene Health Partners in Xenia, Ohio.
She holds a B.S. in psychology from the University of Michigan, and received her D.O. degree in May 1997 from Michigan State University College of Osteopathic Medicine.
Dr. Stetzer completed her residency at St. John Riverview Hospital in Detroit, followed by her OB/GYN residency at Henry Ford/Horizon Health System in Warren, Michigan where she was chief resident from 2001 – 2002. She holds board certification from the American Osteopathic Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology, and is also certified in Basic and Advanced Cardiac Life Support, and Neonatal Resuscitation. She is a member of the American Osteopathic Association, and the American College of Osteopathic Obstetricians and Gynecologists.
Dr. Stetzer and her husband, Randy have two children, Alec, age 8, and Shaelan, age 6.
