“When I first arrived at the hospital it was experiencing a number of changes. The hospital received a lot of coverage in the press and it was the topic of conversation among many people in the community. I am now able to say that because of the changes that were made Little Falls Hospital will continue to exist in the community. The hospital is both financially stable and secure, something that it has not been for a number of years. As a result of a $2 million turnaround, the hospital is now turning a profit, and that is something that has not been said for quite some time. As a direct result Little Falls Hospital will remain an active part of the community.”

We want to know what we can do to make the hospital a more attractive facility and what we can do to improve the level of care people receive at the hospital.”

“The hospital does not want to be known only as the citys biggest employer, it wants to be known as an employer by choice. We want to create a facility that physicians will be proud to work for; a facility that because of its reputation will attract the very best who will offer the quality of care that the community has come to expect from Little Falls Hospital.”

“We will continue to change as health care is an ever-changing industry.”
