Our community is seeing a surge in influenza and respiratory illness, which may lead to longer wait times in the Emergency Department.

For more than 132 years we have proudly worked to support the healthcare needs of the community and specifically have dedicated our efforts to support healthcare advancements of Elliot Hospital throughout our history.

Our Mission

The Elliot Hospital Associates lives the mission of our organization with innovation, energy, and resilience. We adapt to the challenges of our time through a commitment to teamwork and communication.

Engaging and informing our membership is key to our success. We also inform our members and EHS employees through the Inside Report, a monthly publication on the Elliot Hospital intranet called IKE (Inside Knowledge at the Elliot).

Elliot Hospital Associates Associate of the Year

The Elliot Hospital Associates had a wonderful turnout in November for the annual meeting and breakfast. This year, we had the Elliot Hospital Associates volunteer singing group – the Voluntaires preform. They bring smiles and memories through song at many nursing home facilities in the community. One of the Voluntaires, Ruta Daugela was honored with the Associate of the Year award. She joined the Voluntaires in 2000 and served on the Associates board as liaison of the Voluntaires from 2001-2015.  She is now the accompanist to Rob Dionne, who became the Director of Voluntaires in 2012. Ruta has accumulated over 2,760 hours of lifetime volunteer hours since November 2000. Congratulations Ruta.

Elliot Hospital Associates President Award

The Elliot Hospital Associates honors a community member with the Presidents award.  This year, Dean Williams was honored.  Dean volunteers for many charitable organizations, including:

The Salvation Army, Manchester Moves, Veterans Count, Elliot Breast Care Center, American Red Cross Special Olympics, Gail Singer Memorial Blood Drive, Girls Inc., Feed NH, Swim with a Mission (Navy Seals), and CHAD, just to name a few.

If that isn’t enough, Dean also volunteers his time and talents to support the Elliot Hospital Associates Trivia Night Fundraiser not only by volunteering with helping to set up and break down the day of the event, but also by spending countless hours designing and donating all of the flyers seen around the venue, on each table and the descriptions of all the raffles. Congratulations Dean!

About Us

The Elliot Hospital Associates has rich history going back to the start of Elliot Hospital. We have proudly worked to support the healthcare needs of the community and specifically have dedicated our efforts to support healthcare advancements throughout our history.

The Elliot Hospital Associates has grown as a nonprofit organization, hosting events and raising funds to support care excellence for the people of the greater Manchester community.

While adapting to a world that includes the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are reminded of our history of care through national and worldwide events. Through the 1918 flu, the polio epidemic, weather events, and historical traumas, Elliot Hospital has provided local and regional healthcare leadership and compassionate care. Elliot Hospital Associates has hosted events and raised funds to support this care.

Though we give generously to highly visible centers of excellence, we also provide measures of comfort, and we have adapted our work to meet the needs of today. Patients appreciate the pillows, hats, and other items made by our sewing volunteers, while a group of talented singers known as the Voluntaires provide joy through song. There are many other people, actions, events, and efforts that contribute to who we are today.
