Julie Schneckenburger, left, Chief Nursing Officer at Northeastern Vermont Regional Hospital (NVRH), presents a check to Amanda Cochrane, the Executive Director at Umbrella. Umbrella is one of three local not-for-profits that received donations collected during National Nurses Week back in May 2019. The other two are Kingdom Community Services and the Kingdom Animal Shelter. “We offer our nurses several choices for a gift card to local establishments,” Schneckenburger said. “Three of the choices gave the nurses an option to donate their gift to help others.”

Northeastern Vermont Regional Hospital is located in St. Johnsbury in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. We are a community, not-for-profit, acute care, critical access hospital. NVRH is one of  two Vermont hospitals designated as a Baby FriendlyTM hospital by the United Nations. The organization provides primary and preventive care, surgical and specialty services, inpatient and outpatient care and 24-hour, physician-staffed emergency services. NVRH serves more than 30,000 people in the Caledonia and Southern Essex Counties in Vermont and employs 600.
