Local Healthcare Providers Prepared for COVID-19
Memorial Hospital and White Mountain Community Health Center both say they are prepared for COVID-19. The medical centers are following recommendations by the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services Health Alert Network and are reminding patients to call them if they are experiencing any form of concerning illness. White Mountain Community Health Center says they can assess patients by phone and provide help in making informed decisions without putting other patients in risk. Memorial Hospital says they’ve been following updates from New Hampshire’s DHHS since January regarding the virus and have built questions into their visitor registration process to assess the likeliness of possible cases.
New Hampshire’s Department of Health and Human Services says COVID-19, and all respiratory illnesses, are most commonly spread through respiratory droplets. They say residents should take the same precautions as those recommended to prevent the spread of influenza:
Memorial Hospital NH is a part of the MaineHealth network who have published an informational page on their website advising concerned residents about the virus.
Dartmouth-Hitchcock Health has been at the center of New Hampshire’s part of the COVID-19 outbreak. One of their employees had traveled to Italy where they contracted the virus. Even though they had reported themselves after developing symptoms, they broke quarantine after testing positive for the virus by going to a social event at White River Junction, Vermont. Since then another person who was in contact with that man has tested positive for the virus and a fellow attendee to the event has reported symptoms and is being tested. Both are under self-quarantine. Dartmouth-Hitchcock health has released two videos addressing the issue. The second video speaks to when it’s appropriate to wear a mask or not. That can be seen below:

Ossipee Fire on Route 16 UPDATED
Shortly after noon on Thursday scanner calls indicated a serious fire at an apartment building off Route 16 in Ossipee, New Hampshire. New Hampshire’s State Department of Safety has confirmed that a fire had trapped multiple people in the upper floors of a four story apartment building. State Fire Marshall Paul Parisi says three occupants jumped from windows on the third and fourth stories and two children were dropped from those upper level windows as well. Firefighters extracted at least one victim using a ground ladder. Ossipee’s Police Department closed down Rt. 16 near the fire and began redirecting traffic sometime around 1:45pm. Authorities say there was a total of 8 victims transferred to hospitals for a mixture of traumatic injuries from jumping as well as smoke inhalation. Most of the victims were transferred to Huggins Hospital in Wolfeboro for treatment. They ranged from a 2-year old girl to a 53-year-old man. Three victims had to be further transferred to Dartmouth Hitchcock, two by DHART helicopter and one by ambulance. Among them, a 1 month old girl who was reported to be in critical condition as well as two female teenagers in serious but non-life threatening conditions. WMUR-TV reports a woman named Doran Garland was driving along Route 16 when she saw the fire and pulled over to help. According to WMUR and social media posts, she and others were using a blanket to catch victims as they jumped from the building.
Approximately half of the 49 occupants of the apartments were home at the time of the fire. The origins of the fire are still under investigation. Authorities report Red Cross is helping families displaced by the fire. Parisi says the town of Ossipee has also been instrumental in providing aid for the victims. Lakes Region Humane Society say they can help find temporary housing situations for the cats and dogs of those affected. New Hampshire’s Department of Safety is reminding residents once again to make sure their smoke alarms are working.
