A Letter from Our President

DEAR FRIENDS, As we enter our second summer on our new Fore River healthcare campus, we have seen the “walls” of our organization grow considerably if measured in number and scope of our many, many community partnerships.

The strength of these alliances, the additional resources and expertise they bring to us and vice versa, makes us a more responsive healthcare organization and community hospital. When we moved from State Street to our Fore River campus, some worried we would lose touch with our neighbors. Our physical relocation has been countered with a redoubled effort to be present in a way that contributes to the health and well-being of those we are here to serve every day. And of course, when we talk about partners, we are especially mindful of those who have invested in our mission to support our patients, our work, and our people. The Patricia Klingensteins of the world, along with donors who give $1 or $5, all care deeply enough to make a difference in the lives of others and make our community stronger.

Mercy is Mercy because of your partnership—past and present.

Thank you one and all.

Charlie Therrien, FACHE President Northern Light Mercy Hospital
