A Message From Our President
Always there, ready to care. Enhancing lives, strengthening communities.
These words are much more than just the theme of this year’s NHHA/FHC Annual Meeting, October 20-22nd at the beautiful Omni Mount Washington Resort in Bretton Woods, New Hampshire. They are the embodiment of the mission of every New Hampshire hospital and health system. Our members proudly stand ready to care for their patients and communities every hour of every day. The women and men who provide care and work in our hospitals and health systems do so with great skill and compassion, and we are forever grateful for all that they do to care for the patients and communities who depend on them to be there when they are needed most.
This year’s annual meeting will be a great opportunity for our members to learn, share and network with one another as we discuss the challenges and opportunities ahead in building the health care system that will serve the Granite State in the years to come. We thank our many sponsors and others who make this meeting the success it is every year.
Be healthy, stay well!
Steve Ahnen
