Littleton Regional Healthcare

We are thrilled to announce that we have been awarded the region's only Level III Trauma Center designation by the State of New Hampshire. Trauma Center certification is designed to aid prompt treatment of an injured person by matching medical needs with hospital resources. LRH’s trauma designation has been years in the making. A multi-disciplinary team led the efforts, but accomplishing this distinction required, and will continue to require, the dedication of the entire organization. Going forward, patients in the northern part of the state can remain local while they receive specialty care for traumatic injuries. Now more than ever, local Emergency Medical Services (EMS) and hospitals in nearby communities can look to LRH for resources to support trauma cases and support patients throughout the region with a higher level of care.

On Thursday, we hosted a ribbon cutting ceremony to commemorate the implementation of our brand new laboratory automation system, featuring state-of-the-art chemistry and hematology analytical instruments. The full system went live early this year and is complete with Beckman Coulter’s DxA 5000 Fit Workflow Automation System and DxI 9000 Immunoassay Analyzer. We are proud to be at the forefront of Laboratory Medicine as one of the first Critical Access Hospitals in the nation with these cutting-edge healthcare solutions in place. To celebrate our early adoption of this technology, representatives from Beckman Coulter Diagnostics were on-site to memorialize our partnership and recognize all those involved in bringing the vision to life and completing the project.

We are thrilled to introduce Lincoln Urgent Care, a department of Littleton Regional Healthcare! We spent yesterday morning with existing LRH staff working alongside Urgent Care staff to ensure everything is functioning as it should. We are still working to transition the space, but you'll notice some obvious changes, like the new sign out front! Major kudos to the staff here in Lincoln, all of whom decided to join LRH and will continue to deliver the great care this community has come to know.
