“The Nantucket Cottage Hospital has taken care of me, my family and many of my employees over the years. That hospital saved my mother’s life. But the mechanics of this aging building need to be updated to continue to provide us with the best quality care thirty miles out to sea. The hospital has come a long way in the thirty years I’ve been on Nantucket, and now it needs to take the next step.”
– Michael Molinar, Flowers on Chestnut

“Since 1957, we have benefited from the services provided by our hospital, from diagnostic tests to emergency room visits to a stay in the swing bed program, ankle surgery, telemedicine consultation – even a trip on Boston MedFlight. Needless to say, we value our hospital. However, for our hospital to continue to meet our needs and the needs of our family and community, we need to invest in its future and the replacement of our current facility.”
– Randy and Ned Wight

“Old-fashioned herbal supplements and eating fresh, organic food are at the heart of my advice to my customers, but I also keep them informed about new research and cutting-edge supplements. I’m excited about a new hospital for the same reasons. While I have always had stellar care at Nantucket Cottage Hospital, I also recognize the need for a new facility with an additional operating room, more clinical space in an efficient layout, and a modern, reliable infrastructure for Nantucket’s families and visitors.”

“As a small community, our hospital is more than just a place for medical care – it’s more personal. The nurse who’s taking care of you could have also been there when you were born. If I ever get injured playing softball, I want to know that I will be taken care of just as well, if not better, than at a hospital off island. A new hospital for the island could help keep student athletes safe for years to come.”
