Cottage Hospital is committed to your health, being

Cottage Hospital

had a combina-

tion of progress,

opportunity and

challenges for

2009. Through it

all we stayed focused on you, our

community, and bringing you the

quality healthcare that you expect

and deserve.

This year we implemented an Elec-

tronic Medication Administration

Record, this will reduce the potential

of medication errors and allow a more

efficient process. Looking toward the

future, we will focus on Computerized

Provider Order Entry, this will allow

the physician to directly order patient

medications from a number of

different locations, eliminating chance

of a medication error. With the closure

of this electronic loop, we will have

reached a national safety goal!

We also dramatically improved our

Core Measures performance this year.

New Hampshire ranks number one in

the country for compliance with the

Quality of Core Measures, and Cottage

Hospital’s performance is equal to or

better than New Hampshire. You can

view how Cottage is doing by going to

the bottom of our website and clicking

on the NH Quality Care link.

We did not fare particularly well

financially this year. We believe the

general economy and unemployment

rate has caused many people to be

uninsured, and newly designed

insurance plans with high co-pays and

deductibles have had an impact on our

bottom line. Our volume this year was

essentially static on in-patient admis-

sions and there was a decrease in our

out-patient services. This problem was

not unique to Cottage and we echoed

what was happening nationally. Last

year approximately one-third of U.S.

hospitals were in the red, and as this

year closes, the American Hospital

Association reports that the number

will jump to fifty percent.

During the course of the year, we also

implemented the electronic record

portion of the Quality program, which

enables our Quality department to know

how we are doing with Core Measures

and other Quality data in “real time”.

With the completion of CPOE and the

determination from the federal govern-

ment as to what “meaningful use” of

this healthcare electronic information

is, Cottage will have completed the

federal

requirements

for electronic

health records

ahead of most

other hospi-

tals. I believe

we will meet

our goal of

achieving a full Electronic Health

Record within the year.

All of these factors are driving the

current push by the government for

healthcare reform. Reform will impact

the hospital strategically and financially

more than any previous legislation.

Some challenges facing us in 2010 will

be to incorporate additional Quality

Core Measures required by CMS and the

additional reporting required by our own

state agencies. These types of directives

are another way that we can work to

increase transparency in healthcare.

Our Goals for the upcoming year are

to implement Telepsychiatry, which

will allow patients in our Emergency

Department to have access to White

Mountain Mental Health via computer

connection. We are also actively

engaged in looking at Teledermatol-

ogy, as this is a very needed service,

given the lack of dermatologists in the

North Country.

This year there will be a number of

changes on the Board and the

corporate members will be asked to

vote on several new Board members.

There appears to be a lot of talent

among these individuals.

Cottage Hospital will also see some

transitions in the management team

as we have hired a new Medical

Surgical & Pediatric Director, Holly

McCormack. Maria Ryan our current

COO/CNO, will transition into my role

as Chief Executive Officer.

Looking ahead, the Strategic Planning

Committee will bring in a Consultant

Group to help Cottage face future

issues. Now, more than ever, we’re

going to need the engagement of the

medical staff, the community, and the

hospital management to plot a course

for the future. In this light, Cottage

Hospital joined the New England

Alliance for Health. The intent of this

organization is twofold: first, as a

group purchasing organization, and it

is anticipated

that Cottage

will save

thousands of

dollars. More

importantly,

however, this

group is also

involved in a strategic view of the

Upper Valley, including both VT and

NH hospitals, including Dartmouth

Hitchcock Medical Center. We all

believe that the healthcare market is

starting to consolidate and Cottage

wants to be collaborating with our

partners as we begin to look at how

we’re going to be providing care

regionally, and ultimately, to you as

the community that we serve.

As a final note, this will be my last

written report and I want to thank the

corporate members and the commu-

nity, as it has been a true privilege and

honor to have served this community

for the last seventeen years.

VOLUNTEER REPORT

2009 Volunteers:

The mission of the Cottage Hospital Auxiliary is to support and enhance the hospital and its facilities and services.

The Auxiliary continued their various fund raisers. One of the most enjoyable is talk-

ing with travelers at the Interstate 91 Rest Stop, while providing coffee and treats.

A donation jar is available and people are wonderful, frequently putting in far more

than the value of the snacks they choose.

Other fundraisers included: Our Books Are Fun Sales, The Easter Dinner Basket

Raffle, a Thanksgiving Bake Sale, and the Christmas Memory Tree. Each year, we also

make Christmas Stockings big enough to take a newborn home in and the first baby

born each January receives a basket of useful items for baby and parents.

Our biggest fundraiser was our 7th Annual Golf Tournament netting $3,300 that we

donated to the Cottage Hospital Annual Appeal. We had a full field of sixteen teams;

and every tee and green was sponsored. Many gift certificates, rounds of golf, and

prizes were donated. We are grateful to Lisbon Village Country Club and the gener-

ous businesses and players who supported this event.

Each year Cottage Hospital hosts various events to raise money

and awareness for the hospital. This gives us an opportunity to raise

money for much needed equipment and also educate the community

on a variety of health topics!

In April we hosted the 18th Annual Cottage Hospital Variety Show. The

money raised from this event helped us purchase a Cardiac Monitor for

our Emergency Department.

September welcomed the 19th Annual Cottage Hospital Walk-A-Thon and

Road Race. This event was a huge success with over almost 200 partici-

pants and raising over $15,000 for the purchase of a portable ventilator.

We also were busy this year getting involved in our community and

working to educate you on healthy lifestyles. We were excited to con-

tinue our Cottage Corner Column with The Bridge Weekly Sho-Case,

set up a booth at the North Haverhill Fair and we even found time to

get into your grocery carts with our dietary staff doing presentations

at our local Shaws Supermarket.
