“I chose to work at Manchester Memorial Hospital to gain more experience in my career. I love taking care of people, and my patients motivate me to wake up and go to work every day. At Manchester Memorial Hospital, we are all about teamwork and we act like we are family.” Jillian Fowler CNA, 3 North Employee for 3 years
“When I saw a job posting for ECHN, I remember feeling delighted in learning that ECHN was filling full-time positions. I also was excited to work in Manchester, where three generations of my family have grown up. It makes me happy to be here; it has always felt like home here. The number one reason I recommend someone to work at ECHN is because at the hospital, you are part of a world class team. Even more, there is a feeling of cooperation, teamwork, discovery, and service that words can't quite articulate. I am humbly grateful for the opportunity to work, grow and help our patients with their cardiac needs.” Gordon Eckler Sonographer ECHN employee for 2.5 years
“I like working at ECHN because it is close to home. Because of this, I have been able to really develop my nursing career here at Manchester Memorial Hospital. The staff is also really close. In each department I have worked over the years, all my co-workers have become like a second family to me. They have celebrated my life events; through marriage, through the birth of my children, even through loss. They have also supported me and mentored me professionally and I feel that I can rely on the strong clinical skills of my fellow nurses and physicians to create the best outcome for each patient.” Dawn Moreau RN/Charge RN GI ECHN employee for 29 years
“I like working at Manchester Memorial Hospital because it’s a great community hospital and I love the staff and teamwork; all the nurses and management work well together and are always willing to help, no matter what.” Colleen Tardif Nurse Assistant/ Intensive Care Unit, Manchester Memorial Hospital ECHN employee for 20 years
“I volunteered in Rockville General Hospital’s emergency department when I was in high school. After graduating college, I was ready to come back home, and it was an easy decision to take a second shift position at the hospital. I felt like I was already a member of the family; it felt like a homecoming. At ECHN, we work as a team, we work hard and we support one another. 32 years later, I am grateful I was given the opportunity to work at the very place that introduced me to laboratory medicine and I am able to work someplace close to home.” Brenda Jacobsen, MT (ASCP) CLS (NCA) Medical Technologist / Laboratory (microbiology) ECHN Employee for 32 years
“Having been promoted to Chemistry Supervisor has contributed to my growth here at ECHN. My staff motivates me and I have the best manager/assistant director. Working at the hospital is great because of how welcome everyone makes me feel, and managers and executive management take the time to recognize hard work. I love waking up and coming to work every day; it feels like family here. When I’m not working, you can find me in the kitchen. I love cooking and baking and I always bake for my co-workers.” Andrea Timothy – Duran Clinical Laboratory Specialist, Chemistry ECHN employee for 2 years and 8 months
“I started working at ECHN at age 16; I have worked in numerous departments within the hospital both as a nurse and nonclinical employee, giving me the opportunity for a lot of growth and development. As an RN preceptor, I make sure my orientees are given both autonomy and support throughout their orientation. I always try to seek out the best learning opportunities for my orientees to help them succeed.” Amanda Niemczyk RN, MMH Critical Care Suites ECHN employee for 17 years

Today we celebrate National Doctors' Day. We sincerely thank all of our doctors for their commitment, dedication and selflessness of being on the front lines in this trying, critical time in our history. This year marks the 100th anniversary of Manchester Memorial Hospital, and we find ourselves looking back on our history when MMH was born in response to the great influenza epidemic of late 1918. We are inspired by our past, and our present day doctors will lead the way and inspire our future.
