“Dartmouth Health has been proud to support APD during its journey towards Level 1 Geriatric Emergency Department accreditation, and we’re delighted that one of our members now provides even more access to age-friendly care for our older patients, when they need it, where they need it,” said Scott Rodi, MD, MPH, FACEP, chair of the department of emergency medicine at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center and Clinics and the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth. “This is another example of Dartmouth Health’s commitment to geriatric care throughout our region.” Nice work, Alice Peck Day Memorial Hospital!
We are excited to announce that Alice Peck Day Memorial Hospital (APD), has achieved Level 1 Geriatric Emergency Department (GED) accreditation from the American College of Emergency Physicians. This makes APD the first critical access hospital in the United States to hold this distinction. This accreditation program was created to recognize emergency departments that uphold the highest standards of care for older adults. “Healthcare is ever changing, with some of the greatest advancements ever seen in modern medicine, but we must be cognizant of not losing the 'care' in healthcare,” said Kristie R. Foster, MSN, RN, GERO-BC. “Each one of us deserves to be treated with kindness and compassion in addition to all the latest and greatest medication and treatment modalities. Our geriatric patients want to be heard about what matters most to them. Geriatric emergency care is focused on making these a priority. That is the heart of this work.” Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gSeCWk3N

It's an exciting time for Dartmouth Cancer Center as we expand access to oncology services in southern New Hampshire. Last week, we celebrated the expansion of our radiation and oncology unit at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center and Clinics Manchester, just in time for our clinical and hematology/oncology infusion services in Manchester moving to the clinic from the Notre Dame Pavilion at CMC. "This allows all of cancer care to be under one roof: Dartmouth surgeons, gynecologic oncologists, hematologists, medical oncologists, internists and now a radiation company," Charles Thomas Jr., MD, chair of radiation oncology and applied sciences, told ManchesterInkLink.com. "All patients that have cancer will require some of those services during their journey, so this (expansion) will help minimize their fragmentation of care." https://lnkd.in/eee3WQKs 📷: Andrew Sylvia via Manchester Ink Link (above)

In August, Boston Red Sox Hall of Famer and Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center and Clinics patient Bill "Spaceman" Lee was the guest of honor at our annual Love Your Heart Night with the New Hampshire Fisher Cats. Bill came to DHMC earlier this year after a complicated artery blockage threatened to end the southpaw pitcher's five-decade baseball career, after several other hospitals declined to take his case. Hannah Chaudry, MD, an interventional cardiologist with DHMC's Heart & Vascular Center—and fellow lefty—was able to fix Bill's heart, allowing him to return to the mound once more. WMUR-TV sports director Mike Cronin sat down with Bill at the game as he prepared to throw out the first pitch. True to his nickname, Bill's signature "Leephus pitch" and zest for life are out of this world! Click here to watch their colorful conversation on "New Hampshire Chronicle." ⚾❤️

"People should not be afraid of mental illness. They should not be afraid of people with mental illness. They should not be afraid of guns. Guns are tools. But you should be afraid of the mixture of a gun and a behavioral health crisis." Dartmouth Health psychiatrist Jeffrey Fetter, M.D., is one of many Dartmouth Health clinicians who staff New Hampshire Hospital, the state-run acute psychiatric care facility. Dr. Fetter was also one of many Dartmouth Health staff members who were present at NHH on November 17, 2023, when a former patient walked into the lobby with a handgun and shot and killed security guard Bradley Haas, who was unarmed. The shooter was then shot and killed by a New Hampshire State Police trooper stationed at NHH. In a recent interview with WMUR-TV, Dr. Fetter candidly shared his recollections of what happened that day. We thank Dr. Fetter for his bravery and advocacy on behalf of people experiencing mental illness, and to ensure that patients and staff in healthcare facilities can be and feel safe. (Trigger warning: This article and video detail gun violence and Dr. Fetter's experience as a survivor of a hospital shooting.)
