nsuring a sustainable and robust health
system for our community…this has been
our vision for the past three years as we
worked with Dartmouth-Hitchcock on our closer affiliation
that was finalized on March 2, 2015. The health and
wellness of every community member in our region is
important to us and this is why the Dartmouth-Hitchcock
system was an obvious partner—both of our organizations
share a common commitment to advance population
health for the communities we serve.
A key element of our affiliation agreement was our shared
vision of Cheshire Medical Center becoming a Regional
Referral Center for the Dartmouth-Hitchcock system and
this is now well underway. We are currently increasing our
resources—recruiting physicians, nurses and staff to care
for a higher census of Intensive Care patients to help keep
our patients closer to their homes and families. And we are
working to increase the overall number of patients we can
care for from our own community and from southern New
Hampshire, southeastern Vermont and the Connecticut
River Valley—both in the hospital and in our medical
offices. This includes expanding the number of our MedicalSurgical beds with the reopening of our Kingsbury inpatient
unit. We continue to explore and implement innovative
models of care to improve the health of our patients.
Access to care is an important factor and prime examples
of our efforts to improve access this year include:
n The opening of our Family Medicine Walk-In
Care service located at the Center at Colony Mill,
providing care seven days a week, 365 days a year.
Walk-In Care is a convenient and popular option,
providing health care directly connected to our
patients’ existing medical providers.
n The completion of our Emergency Department
renovation that has improved patient privacy,
provided dedicated space for behavioral health
patients in crisis and incorporated advanced

you for helping us care for our community.
I’m honored to be serving in my new role as CEO,
President and Chief Medical Officer. I share a special
thank you to our team of dedicated physicians, associate
providers, nurses, ancillary and support staff who
provide high-quality, compassionate care to our patients
every day—helping to keep patients well and providing
care when needed. I am proud of our role in Healthy
Monadnock 2020 and know that working together, we
can live in the nation’s healthiest community.
n Successful physician and associate provider
recruitment for Primary Care, Oncology,
Cardiology, Orthopaedics and other specialties.
As we strive to provide innovative and expanded
services for our patients, philanthropic support for
our nonprofit hospital is more important than ever.
We are grateful to our donors for their support of
our Initiative for Community Wellness that helped
fund the renovation of our Emergency Department
and the expansion of Healthy Monadnock 2020.
Over $2.3 million was raised and is making a difference
in the health and wellness of our region today. Thank

Centering Pregnancy is an innovative
CMC/DHK 2015 birth: Amy Elizabeth
prenatal care program that emphasizes selfawareness, education and support within a group
setting. Groups consist of expectant mothers
who are due to deliver around a similar date.
Participants receive individual prenatal care and
engage in self-care activities like weight and blood
pressure checks. Group discussions are facilitated
by an OB/GYN healthcare provider and range
from physical changes during pregnancy to
parenting philosophies, from diapers to diets.
Centering Pregnancy provides pregnant women
the important support of an extended community
network often missing for women in today’s
complex society.

he mission of Cheshire Medical Center/
Dartmouth-Hitchcock Keene (CMC/DHK)
is to lead our community to become the
nation’s healthiest through our clinical and service
excellence, collaboration and compassion for every
patient, every time. The Community Benefits programs
of CMC/DHK form the bedrock of this mission. Our
programs support the fundamentals of well-being
for community members with classes and initiatives
advocating an active lifestyle, good nutrition and healthy
living conditions for all in the Monadnock Region.
In total, CMC/DHK provided $4.25 million in
community health services, health profession education,
subsidized health services and community-building
activities including $2 million in unreimbursed charity
care. In addition to these services, we absorbed $23
million in unreimbursed Medicaid and Medicare costs.
CMC/DHK’s Community Benefits programs enhance
the lives of community members of all ages, each and
every day.
Programs include discounted meals and free nutrition
education to strengthen our seniors, health and safety
information for emergency preparedness and assistance
in accessing federal and state insurance programs to
empower individuals and families to further their wellbeing. The Cheshire Walkers walking club included
175 participants in 2015, 487 community members took
advantage of free tobacco cessation counseling and
Medication Assistance
Our Medication Assistance Program serves those who
face the difficulty of being unable to afford long-term
or expensive prescriptions. In the past year, program
coordinator Haley Compos has aided 252 patients with
chronic conditions to obtain free medications through
pharmaceutical companies that offer free medications
to qualifying patients, to ensure they receive the
medications they need to maintain good health.
Smoke-Free Housing
Cheshire Coalition for Tobacco Free Communities
(CCTFC), in partnership with BreathNH, has been
working with Cheshire Housing Trust, Keene Housing
and Southwestern Community Services, to implement
smoke-free policies for their properties.
CCTFC, CMC/DHK and Healthy Monadnock have
created a web-based directory of smoke-free rental
units in our community. The Cheshire County SmokeFree Housing Directory is available to search and find
rental properties that prohibit smoking indoors as a
condition of the lease. The smoke-free directory can
be found at www.healthymonadnock.org.

Restored
and what my scar would look like—it’s almost invisible.
The surgery went so smoothly—I was only in the
hospital overnight.”
affrey resident Nancy Hickox was at a routine doctor’s
appointment just before her 30th birthday when her
doctor informed her that she had an extremely low
heart rate of only 33 beats per minute. A normal
heart rate is 60 to 100 bpm. Upon further
examination she and her doctor agreed they would
monitor her condition with the understanding that
she would one day need a pacemaker to control her
heart rate.
Nancy’s pacemaker keeps her heart rate in the range
of 65 to 70 bpm. “I felt better overnight,” Nancy said.
“My pacemaker has given me the confidence to do
everything I want to do.” Nancy’s active lifestyle is proof
of that. She spends the majority of her day on her feet
working as a hair stylist at her salon in Swanzey. At home
she manages her Jaffrey “friendly farm” of more than 50
animals, including emus, horses, pigs, donkeys, sheep
and chickens. To celebrate her 50th birthday, Nancy
took part in a 5K obstacle course.
That day finally arrived 10 years later while Nancy
was competing in a pig scramble at the Cheshire Fair.
Nancy felt lethargic and faint. For the first time her
condition was compromising her quality of life. Nancy’s
doctor referred her to Cardiologist Dr. Todd Silberstein
at Cheshire Medical Center/Dartmouth-Hitchcock
Keene. Dr. Silberstein implanted a pacemaker, a small
device which uses low-energy electric pulses to prompt
the heart to beat at a normal rate, under the skin near
Nancy’s heart.
Technology allows Dr. Silberstein’s Cardiology team to
check Nancy’s pacemaker through her telephone every
three months to record the status of her pacemaker
and heart rate. “I’m living proof of how successful the
surgery can be,” said Nancy. “I didn’t realize how much
the low blood flow was impacting my life. I feel so good
now that I don’t even think about having a pacemaker.
I’m especially thankful to Dr. Silberstein. He took the
time to get to know me and understand my lifestyle.
The care I receive at CMC/DHK lets me carry on with
my life exactly how I want to live.”
“From the moment I met Dr. Silberstein I was very
comfortable,” said Nancy. “He was so reassuring
and relatable. He told me he once had a pacemaker
himself and he gave me a full explanation of how the
pacemaker would work, what the surgery would be like
A pacemaker is an
Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD). An ICD consists of
a pulse generator about the size of a pocket watch, which is connected to the heart with electrodes or
“leads”—wires that go through the veins to the heart. ICDs are battery-powered and like all batterypowered devices, the batteries need to be changed. This requires a new generator to be implanted.
In the past year Dr. Silberstein performed 66 new ICD implants and generator changes.
CMC/DHK Cardiology currently monitors the ICDs of 517 patients like Nancy.

cardiovascular disease and some cancers such as colon
and breast cancer.
f we all adhered to the national guidelines
endorsed by Healthy Monadnock, the healthiest
community engagement initiative conceived
and coordinated by CMC/DHK, we would be moving
our bodies for at least 150 minutes each week—and
realizing the health benefits of being physically active.
Unfortunately, in the Monadnock Region, only about 25
percent of adults currently meet the recommendation.
“Research has found that people in walkable
neighborhoods do about 35-45 more minutes of
moderate intensity physical activity per week and are
substantially less likely to be overweight or obese than
similar people living in low-walkable neighborhoods,”
notes Linda Rubin, Director, Healthy Monadnock.
Turning our focus to promoting and funding projects to
make our streets safer can have immediate and long-term
positive health impacts.
Healthy Monadnock and key partner Southwest Region
Planning Commission are implementing strategies
to make it easier for people to move more—no gym
membership required. The changes are based around a
concept called active transportation.
The strategies for active transportation have made great
strides and the programs are set to expand throughout
the region.
Active transportation means choosing to walk or cycle as
your day-to-day way of getting from one place to another.
It calls for a physical infrastructure—think streets with
sidewalks, bike lanes, crosswalks and signage—that
supports us to safely and easily walk, bike or wheelchair
roll for activities like shopping, work, school and
recreation. Research shows you can improve your health
with just 30 minutes of quick walking every day. Walking
can also help you feel better physically and mentally.
And by increasing our physical activity, we can reduce
our risk for developing chronic diseases like diabetes,
Safer Streets Complete Streets policies adopted by the
City of Keene and area towns will improve walking and
biking accessibility along our region’s roadways.
Enhanced Physical Infrastructure The Rack It Up!
program created 170 new bicycle parking spaces (85
new racks at 30 locations) in 2015, specifically targeting
high-traffic areas (near banks and grocery stores) and at
worksites and schools throughout the region.
Making It Safer to Walk and Bike to School Safe Routes
to Schools action plans being developed in area schools
outline committed changes to increase the number of
students who walk and bike to school.
Physical Activity at Work Worksite wellness initiatives
supported through the Healthy Monadnock Champions
program can increase physical activity at work with the
creation of worksite walking paths, physical activity breaks
and Take-the-Stairs campaigns.
“Active transportation is gaining momentum throughout
the nation not only for the impact it can have on health
but also for the positive impact it is proving to have on
worker productivity, job growth, individual transportation
costs, air quality, property values and tourism,” says Linda.

“Your health will benefit
greatly from active
transportation. You can take
a leisurely walk with family
and friends after a meal.
Take a walk during a lunch
break at work. If you drive to
work, choose to park some
distance away so you can walk
the rest of the way.”

all of the surgeries. Jim wouldn’t have it any other way.
im Wallace’s orthopaedic pains began more than
a decade ago in his right knee while coaching
soccer. His primary care provider referred him
to CMC/DHK Orthopaedic Surgeon, Dr. Mark
Silbey. Jim was diagnosed with an Osteochondral
injury, likely caused by the sudden stops,
forceful twisting and hyper-flexing of the knees
that occur in soccer. Dr. Silbey recommended
microfracture surgery, which involves smoothing
the edges of the bone cartilage and piercing
holes in the underlying bone. These holes
release cells in the bones that build new
cartilage to replace the damaged tissue. “Dr.
Silbey told me it would relieve my pain for
7-10 years and that I would be able to play
soccer again.” Jim said, “And he was right.”
“It’s been a long 10 years of injuries and surgeries, for
me and my family,” Jim said. “The Orthopaedics team
was there for us every step of the way. The constant
communication among the Physician Assistant, Certified
Athletic Trainer and Dr. Silbey was reassuring.
“Dr. Silbey talked about getting me ‘back to sport’,” Jim
continues. “My personal experiences, combined with
those of my wife and kids, gave me a true appreciation
of the skill and expertise that the Orthopaedics team
provided to get me and my family ‘back to sport’.”

for resurfacing surgery on his left knee
and in 2015 for surgery to remove arthritis
from his shoulder. “Dr. Silbey’s team tailored
all of my treatments to meet my needs,” Jim
said. “My opinions and needs were respected
and my questions answered clearly and honestly.
Everything I have been told has rung true. It’s a
great relationship where I trust my doctor. He gave
me options and the expected outcomes and I trusted
what he had to say. I felt like I was a part of that team.”

Advanced Treatment
& Compassionate Care
N
o one is ever ready to hear that they
or a loved one have cancer. Patients
and family members may feel shock,
fear, grief, depression… cancer takes its toll on the spirit
as well as the body.
The team at the Norris Cotton Cancer CenterKingsbury Pavilion in Keene, lead by the Cancer
Center’s Medical Director, Robert Pritchard, MD, MS,
provides comprehensive diagnosis, treatment and
recovery services for cancer patients in the region.
Whether their individualized care plan includes
radiation oncology, medical oncology, surgical oncology
or palliative care, advanced technology is available
at the Cancer Center. Patients receive a level of care
often associated with large urban hospitals and cancer
centers—with the added benefit of treatment closer to
the support and comfort of home.
The Norris Cotton Cancer Center-Kingsbury Pavilion
works to extend its reach of care beyond the hospital
walls to where the real healing begins —at home. The
Patient Relief Fund provides financial assistance to
patients receiving care in Keene who have difficulty
covering daily living costs due to their illness, like gas,
heating fuel and groceries.
The team at the Cancer Center acknowledges life after
cancer as more than just surviving with the annual
National Cancer Survivors Day celebration. “This
is one of my favorite days of the year,” says Jennifer
Michelson, RN, Director of the Cancer Center.
“Life after cancer can be beautiful, abundant and
fulfilling—that’s something to celebrate. We
address the ongoing challenges survivors face
and also recognize the contributions of
families, friends and healthcare providers.
There’s a special bond we share with our
patients and their families.”
“We help patients and their families negotiate
some very difficult days,” says Dr. Pritchard.
“We understand the ripple effect of a cancer
diagnosis—how it touches every aspect of a
patient’s life and the lives of their loved ones. We
are here to help our patients with every resource at
our disposal.”
Advancements in cancer research and treatment
indicate we are getting closer to a cure, but until
that time, Norris Cotton Cancer Center-Kingsbury
Pavilion is here to treat patients with all of the
available resources of a larger cancer center.
“I had choices for where I went for my cancer
treatments—Dr. Randhawa went above and
beyond for me, and the nurses took great care
of me when I went in every Monday for my
chemo. They took the time to get to know
me—what I liked and what I needed.”

Walk-In Care
Convenience
S
teve Bianco was enjoying a beautiful day on
the golf course, but as his game progressed
during the Connecticut River Cup
tournament at the Keene Country Club, Steve’s arm
became increasingly red, itchy and swollen.
Despite the growing discomfort in his arm, he played
through and completed his 18 holes. His arm continued
to worsen. Steve, who lives with type 2 diabetes, knew
that he should have it examined. But it was a Saturday
afternoon and he didn’t want to make the trip to
the emergency room. One of his teammates in the
tournament reminded him about Walk-In Care from
CMC/DHK. “Going to Walk-In Care was one of the best
decisions I made that day,” Steve said.
“Everything about Walk-In Care was easy,” Steve said.
“The location was convenient, with ample parking right
in front and you just walk right in. I didn’t have to fill
out a clipboard of forms because they had my records
on file. And, best of all, I was in and out in about
20 minutes.”
After an examination, Steve was diagnosed with cellulitis
of the arm, a bacterial skin infection which was most
likely caused by an insect bite. Cellulitis is easily treated
with antibiotics in most cases, but left untreated could
spread and become serious and even life-threatening.
“Basically, I had a bad reaction to a bug bite,” Steve said,
“I was prescribed an antibiotic—by the next morning
my arm was practically back to normal and I was able to
play the second day of the golf tournament.”
“I was really impressed,” Steve said. “It’s a state-of-theart facility and I received expert care. I was spared the
dog-and-pony-show of telling all my history and filling
out pages of paperwork. I was treated just like I would
have been at my primary care office. They accepted my
insurance and all I paid was my copay.”
As a Vice President at Savings Bank of Walpole, Steve
appreciates that Walk-In Care is locally run by CMC/
DHK. “As a representative of a local business, having
Walk-In Care available from our local hospital means
a lot to me,” Steve said. “I can receive the same quality
medical care from the hospital that I’ve personally
known and trusted for more than 20 years. It’s quick
and accessible healthcare here in our community.
I would recommend Walk-In Care to anyone for its
convenient and exceptional care.”
Walk-In Care is open seven days a week, 365 days a year
and staffed by Dartmouth-Hitchcock Keene medical staff. Patients have
a direct connection to their medical providers and medical records
every day, with no appointments required. Walk-In Care is convenient
medical care for everyday illnesses and minor injuries.

“When we moved to Keene many years ago, an important
consideration was access to quality health care services.
We feel our community is very fortunate to have such an
array of high-quality specialty health care services in Keene,
connected to the extraordinary services at D-H Lebanon.
This is why we support Cheshire Medical Center—the
friendly and professional staff is another reason. We have
the best of both worlds, access to first class urban health
care services with a small town, personal touch.”

Participation
& Purpose
E
ach year Cheshire Health Foundation
seeks to engage the community in fun and
meaningful initiatives to promote health
and build awareness while raising funds in support of
CMC/DHK programs and patients. This past fiscal year
kicked off in August with the New England Reflections
Calendar fundraiser, showcasing Dr. Jeffery Newcomer’s
breathtaking photography, in support of Pulmonary
Rehabilitation. In September the community hit the
links at our 3rd Annual Golf Tournament in support of
the Healthy Monadnock Champions program. Following
soon after, the 3rd Cheshire Stepping Out for Diabetes
Walk was our best ever. Our fall event cycle wrapped up in
November as we celebrated our healthcare legacy at our
2nd tribute event, Caring, Candlelight and Community, in
which we honored Dr. William Moyle and Alan Stroshine
for their inspired contributions to the health of our
region. Spring brought out a record 600 community
members for our 8th Sports Medicine 5K Run/Walk and
when the spring sun finally decided to stay, it warmed the
bald heads of those who proved Bald Is Beautiful during
our 7th cancer fundraiser. It’s people who make our
events, and we so appreciate all of our sponsors, donors,
volunteers and participants for entertaining, motivating,
inspiring and supporting us over the course of the year to
raise in excess of $117,000.

“‘Nurses are angels without wings’… this
was one of April’s favorite sayings, along
with…, ‘They may forget your name, but
they will never forget how you made them
feel.’ It always took April longer to grocery
shop because she often ran into former
patients. My son and I wanted memorial
gifts for April to benefit nursing programs at
Cheshire Medical Center.”

April Neumeister, a retired Cheshire RN of
36 years, with son Brett Neumeister (center)

Message from the
Chair
A
s I begin my term as Chair of the Board
of Trustees, gratitude is the theme of
my message. Gratitude for a community’s
generosity, and gratitude for staff, physicians and associate
providers who through their work are improving the health
of our region.
It is with deep gratitude that we thank the many
contributors to our Initiative for Community Wellness,
which successfully raised $2.3 million for the renovation
of our Emergency Department and expansion of our
award-winning Healthy Monadnock 2020. Your investment
has enabled us to meet the increasingly complex and
challenging emergency care needs of our community as
well as expand our efforts to keep our region healthy by
focusing on improved health and safety in the places where
we live, learn, work and play. Your generosity ensures that
the highest level of health is achieved for all residents
by broadening access to high-quality health care, and by
reducing the need for medical treatment.
This year brought a change to the Office of the President
with Art Nichols’ decision to retire. After intensive
succession planning, Don Caruso, MD, MPH was named
Chief Executive Officer of the Cheshire Medical Center
and Dartmouth-Hitchcock Keene campus. We want to
acknowledge and thank Art for his 27 years of service
and leadership to Cheshire Medical Center, first as Chief
Financial Officer, and then as President/CEO. Art’s
accomplishments are many, including working with the
Board of Trustees through an intensive strategic planning
process that culminated in a closer affiliation with
Dartmouth-Hitchcock. There was no greater champion of
this strategic direction than Art, who worked closely with
Dartmouth-Hitchcock through Cheshire Medical Center’s
Joint Operating Agreement.
Last March our affiliation with Dartmouth-Hitchcock was
approved by state and federal regulatory bodies. We know well
the values and patient-centered culture of the DartmouthHitchcock system. A highlight of the closer affiliation is the
work that has begun to enhance Cheshire Medical Center’s
capabilities to become a Regional Referral Center, which
means patients in our secondary service areas requiring
hospitalization will now be closer to home. This effort will also
maximize the resources of our medical campus.
I would like to thank my predecessor, Sylvia McBeth, for her
service as Chair. The work of the Board of Trustees during
her two-year term was appreciable, and Sylvia’s leadership
and dedication were fundamental to accomplishing the
Board’s strategic objectives.
On behalf of the Board we are grateful for: staff who are
available 24/7 to care for our patients, and the generosity
of hundreds of individuals, businesses and foundations who
contributed to the Initiative for Community Wellness.
Gregg R. Tewksbury, Chair, Board of Trustees
Appreciation for 27 Years of Service and Dedication:
Arthur W. Nichols, President/CEO, Cheshire Medical Center/Dartmouth-Hitchcock Keene,
retired on October 31, 2015. The patients and employees of CMC/DHK are grateful
for Art’s legacy of leadership, inspiration and commitment to our community and our
organization. His vision has advanced our efforts to become a sustainable healthcare
system for the Monadnock Region.
