Sustaining Maternity Services at Upper River Valley Hospital

The labour and birth unit at Horizon’s Upper River Valley Hospital (URVH) provides vital maternity services to Waterville and surrounding area. 

Horizon Health Network (Horizon) is committed to maintaining these services, and we want to hear from patients, families, clinicians, and staff to understand how we can continue to provide quality care through sustainable maternity services at URVH. Your feedback is important to help inform how maternity services can continue to meet the needs of your community for years to come! 

In-person workshops are being held to gather input from the community about how Upper River Valley Hospital’s maternity services can be sustained well into the future.
