Since its establishment in 1933, Mt. Ascutney Hospital and Health Center has rooted itself in its rural communities and developed a reputation for patient-centered care. The hospital has instituted key administrative roles and programs like director of quality and safety, director of community health, and a hospitalist program. In 2023, walk-in services were expanded from half-day hours to full-day hours for the work week and six advanced practice providers were recruited, as well as a general surgeon. Thanks to the hospital’s affiliation with Lebanon, N.H.-based Dartmouth Health, Dartmouth Health Ophthalmology provides surgical services at the hospital as well. Mt. Ascutney Hospital was named a “Best-In-State Hospital” by Newsweek for 2024.
