North Adams Regional Hospital Community Open House
 |
NORTH ADAMS, Mass — As the opening date for the new North Adams Regional Hospital (NARH) nears, Berkshire Health Systems (BHS) will hold a community open house to show off the new inpatient unit that will care for patients requiring hospital stays.
The open house will be held on Thursday, March 7 from 5 to 7 pm, starting in the lobby of the new North Adams Regional Hospital.
"This open house will allow the North Berkshire community to explore the newly reopened hospital's state-of-the-art facility, meet its dedicated team, and discover the variety of healthcare services that have been specifically designed to keep their care closer to home," said Darlene Rodowicz, President and CEO of Berkshire Health Systems. "We are very proud of the entire NARH team, which has worked tirelessly to complete the complex application and approval process, regulatory surveys and certifications, and the building renovations in order to expand inpatient access in North Berkshire."
BHS officials will be on hand to conduct tours of the new rooms, recently renovated to accommodate the up to 18 inpatients at the Critical Access Hospital, which will formally open in mid-March, almost 10 years to the date when the former NARH closed.
"As a native of North Adams, it is my honor to lead a team of healthcare providers and support staff committed to making the new North Adams Regional Hospital a gold standard of patient care," said Laurie Lamarre, Vice President of NARH. "We look forward to welcoming the community – our neighbors, friends, family and coworkers – to the new North Adams Regional, the cornerstone of a healthier future for North Berkshire."
The community open house will feature light refreshments in addition to the tours. For more information, visit www.berkshirehealthsystems.org/narh.
