THIS IS MY HOSPITAL
“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.”
– Amanda Sandoval, Nantucket High School graduate

THIS IS MY HOSPITAL
“Since moving to Nantucket in 1997, the Cottage Hospital has played an important role in my life. My four children were born there, and now I work there as an interpreter. We have so many more people living on Nantucket than when I first moved to the island, and I believe we need a modern, more efficient hospital to care for everyone.”

THIS IS MY HOSPITAL
“As a high school principal, I encounter 450 reasons everyday why we need a new hospital on Nantucket. The safety and wellbeing of our children speaks for itself. Whether it’s treating an injury on the field or an accident in the lab, we need to have access to quality care.”
– John Buckey, Nantucket High School

THIS IS MY HOSPITAL
“The Nantucket Cottage Hospital has been here for me and my family through joys and sorrows, with dignity, professionalism and loving care. We need to continue providing this valuable service to future generations of visitors and residents here on the island. Nantucket deserves to have a new hospital, for life, death and everything in between.”
