Northern Light Inland Hospital in Waterville announced today, March 13, that they will be closing in June.
The health care system announced that the hospital and clinics will continue clinical services through May 27, while helping patients transition their care to other facilities or organizations in the Waterville area.
From Northern Light Inland Hospital:
Healthcare, like any industry, is in a state of continuous change to meet the needs and expectations of the people we serve. Often, talk of change focuses on the ever expanding, bright future – advances in technology, making care faster, more accessible, and safer; the reassuring site of new facilities and service locations; and tools that make the administrative parts of our lives easier and less expensive.
Change also means thoughtfully and strategically moving on from work that was once critical to meeting those needs, in order to provide sustainable services for the future.On May 27, Northern Light Inland Hospital and its associated Waterville clinics will close. The hospital and team members who work there have served the people of Waterville and the surrounding communities for more than eight decades, and the healthcare needs and the resources available have changed substantially in that time.
This decision does not affect Lakewood, Continuing Care, which will remain open.
