Caring for Our Community

At Holy Family, we believe that delivering exceptional care is as much about the quality of care we offer our patients as it is about caring for the individuals, families and organizations of our community. In addition to medical care, our clinical staff offers a variety of educational offerings and support programs at our hospital: outpatient clinics, family safety project, diabetes education, monthly senior suppers, and more.

We work hard to bring lectures and information to the community by working closely with local organizations in Methuen.  Our senior leaders actively participate on the boards of many organizations, including the Merrimack Valley Chamber of Commerce, Lawrence Boys & Girls Club, The Mother Connection and North Andover United, to name a few.
