New London Hospital Board Chair Appointed to State Position

A notable member within the New London Hospital is getting the recognition she deserves by getting appointed to a newly-created state commission. The New London Hospital Board of Trustees Chair, Susan Reeves, EdD, RN, will be taking up a position on Governor Maggie Hassan’s recently created commission on Health Care Workforce.

The commission’s job is to address the health care workforce shortage in the Granite State and to ensure that the state can meet health care needs for its residents. Reeves will join 14 other members from various backgrounds including nursing, child and elderly care, developmental services, and education.

Reeves has served as a trustee at New London Hospital since 2009 and was elected as the Board Chair last year. In addition, she is also the Dean of the School of Health Professions at Colby-Sawyer College.

Reeves says she is honored to serve on the Governor’s commission and that we must be prepared to meet the future health care needs of our population.
