Meet four generations of MCH patients
In January 1935, a young New Ipswich man drove his pregnant wife through muddy backroads to a small hospital in Peterborough. There, his wife delivered a healthy baby girl, and the couple named her Gail.
88 years later, that baby is the proud matriarch of four generations, all of them born at that same Peterborough hospital, known today as Monadnock Community Hospital.
“We’re all MCH babies,” Gail laughs. “My daughter was born here in 1960. Her daughter Jennifer arrived in 1982, and my great-granddaughter Madison was born here in 2001.”
Over the decades, Gail has witnessed significant changes at MCH. “When I was small, the hospital was the old Parmelee family home. There were still fireplaces in some patient rooms! But today MCH is a big, modern hospital.”
Gail’s family connection to MCH includes her husband Randy, who worked as a mail room volunteer at MCH for several years.
“We are so grateful to have this wonderful hospital in our community,” says Gail, who recently received orthopedic care and physical therapy at the Hospital. “MCH is our family hospital. We just love it.”

maternity ward By Dave Anderson Monadnock Ledger-Transcript Monday, November 4, 2013 (Published in print: Tuesday, November 5, 2013) For more than 20 years, women giving birth in Canada, western Europe and Australia have had the option of using nitrous oxide to help them cope with pain during labor. But in the United States, where nitrous oxide is frequently used in dental offices, it has not been available in delivery rooms. But that’s about to change, and Monadnock Community Hospital in Peterborough is leading the way, the first hospital in New England and one of just a few in the country that has nitrous oxide equipment in its maternity unit. “No one treatment is right for everybody,” says Dr. Fletcher Wilson, the chief of obstetrics at MCH. “The more options available, the better off you’ll be. [Nitrous oxide] is used by the majority of the world. Why aren’t we doing it?” The hospital recently purchased two Pro Nox nitrous oxide delivery systems, which are relatively new to the U.S. market and have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration. The units, which can be wheeled into a birthing room, include both a mask and a mouthpiece, either of which can be used by the patient to breathe in a 50/50 mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen.
