Improving Community Health Is Complex
For many health care organizations or community partners:
-
It is challenging to keep up with massive amounts of health care data that changes constantly.
-
It is frustrating being so busy in your day-to-day role that you lack the bandwidth to address the problems you encounter.
-
Staying compliant with ever-changing regulations.
-
Maintaining health care quality in the face of financial challenges and workforce shortages can feel overwhelming.
Bringing Stakeholders Together to Address Community Health Needs
We achieve our mission of improving total population health through our dynamic partnerships between hospitals, medical providers, health plans, health care stakeholders, and community organizations and individuals.
FHC is the quality arm of the New Hampshire Hospital Association (NHHA). It therefore has a unique relationship with an advocacy-focused organization that can help direct policy changes that support our work.
Building Healthier Communities Together
A Message from our Executive Director
As we embark upon the season of gratitude that will lead us into the new year, we are reminded of how much we have to be thankful for in the New Hampshire health care community. Exceptional care is delivered by an amazing field of dedicated professionals, each bringing their own unique life experience to the work. Our health care and community partners deliver on their missions by collaborating on the common goal to improve well-being. While our state is relatively small, our ability to work together creates a large impact for those we serve, and we are reminded how fortunate we are to work in this community of New Hampshire. We hope you enjoy time in the upcoming season to be with friends, family and colleagues in grateful fellowship. We look forward to continuing to partner together in the year ahead.
Be healthy, stay well!
