Reopen our Regional Hospital known as Norwood Hospital
Reopen our Regional Hospital known as Norwood Hospital
The Issue
Bring Inpatient and Emergency Care Back to Our Communities
In 2020, the devastating flood forced Norwood Hospital to close.
Since then, 250,000 residents across 12 communities have lost local emergency and inpatient hospital care.
Families now face:
· Longer emergency travel times
· More crowded nearby hospitals
· Fewer inpatient beds
· Delays in medical care
Healthcare close to home saves lives.
Support Bill H.5192 filed by:
· John H. Rogers
· Michael F. Rush
We also thank Stephen Lynch for his continued support of this effort.
The bill supports reopening a full-service regional hospital at the former Norwood Hospital site.
We Need State Action
We urge:
· Maura Healey
· Massachusetts legislative leaders
· the Massachusetts Department of Public Health to work with healthcare providers and local officials to restore emergency and inpatient care for our region.
Communities Affected
Norwood • Walpole • Dedham • Westwood • Canton • Sharon • Foxborough • Medfield • Dover • Mansfield • Norfolk • Wrentham
