                    [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.

            [0] => As the parents of four young children, it’s safe to say that Mikella and Jamie Van Dyke of Rindge have their hands full. So, when it came time to choose a hospital for the birth of their youngest child, it wasn’t a difficult decision.

“I have had all of my kids at MCH,” says Mikella. “The experience was very personal each time. The doctors and nurses knew who I was, how many kids I had, and about my past deliveries. They go above and beyond with each patient and listen intently to your wishes regarding your birthing plan.”

While the Van Dykes are no strangers to the Birthing Suite, they have utilized other services at the Hospital, including a trip to the emergency room following a sledding accident.

“One of my sons injured his head sledding and the staff calmed my mama heart, helped my son remain unafraid, and took care of us as fast as they possibly could,” recalls Mikella. “I knew in the scariest moment of my life that the staff would do all that they could for our family. And that’s just what they did.”

Needless to say, the peace of mind that comes with having a local hospital in the community is important to the Van Dykes.

“I am so happy I have a hospital close to home that I can take my family to and trust,” says Mikella. “I know I can count on the staff to always treat me fairly and kindly.”

While we hope to only see the Van Dykes for routine visits, rest assured we’re here for any healthcare issues that arise, including the occasional wayward sled.
