Central Maine Healthcare is experiencing a disruption to our computer and phone systems. We are actively working on a resolution.
On June 1, 2025, technicians monitoring the information systems at Central Maine Healthcare identified unusual activity within the system’s computer software. In response, they immediately secured and shut off all information technology applications and hardware, including network servers and phone systems.
Central Maine Medical Center, Bridgton Hospital and Rumford Hospital are receiving and treating patients, and all physician offices and outpatient sites remain open. The hospitals and physician offices will be informing patients if elective procedures and office visits will be rescheduled.
Further updates will be shared as they become available.
Elsemore Dixfield Family Medicine recipient of United Hero Award
The entire team at Elsemore Dixfield Family Medicine was recently honored for delivering exceptional patient care.
Jessica King, DO, and her team were awarded the 2024 United Hero Award. The award, which is presented by United Healthcare, recognizes healthcare providers for delivering highly rated patient experiences, based on specific targets in patient experience surveys, including getting needed care, care coordination and doctor-patient conversations.
“This award affirms what we already know to be true,” said Christopher Hodgkins, director of regional clinics and care centers for Central Maine Healthcare. “Dr. King and the entire team at Dixfield go above and beyond to provide exceptional care – our patients, organization and community are lucky to have such a talented care team.”
Community Health Fair returns to Bridgton Hospital
The Bridgton Hospital Community Health Fair is back. The hospital held its first annual fair since the pandemic.
Turnout was strong for the event that offered people in the Lakes Region community a chance to tour the hospital and learn about expanded services in cardiology, orthopedics and oncology that are now available. Mammograms were offered and there were opportunities to become new patients of the hospital’s primary care doctors.
Attendees were also able to explore job opportunities with Central Maine Healthcare.
It was also a great event for children who were treated to face paintings, a bounce house and a chance to meet with Dr. Eddy, the official mascot of Central Maine Healthcare.
“It was so great to see members of the community come to the hospital to enjoy this great event,” said Stephany Jacques, president of Bridgton Hospital. “Bridgton Hospital has had some significant improvements in recent years, and this offered the public an opportunity to learn about what is happening here and how they can benefit. We look forward to having this event again next year!”
Bridgton Hospital nurse receives Winnie Moore Award
A Bridgton Hospital nurse is this year’s recipient of the Winnie Moore Award.
Janette Laplante, RN, who is a nurse leader at Bridgton, was recognized for exemplifying leadership, mentorship and commitment to caring for the Lakes Region community.
She was selected by a committee, and the nomination letter reads, in part: Janette is a nurse at heart and continues to care for patients. She cares deeply and holistically for each and every one, as well as for their families. Recently a patient passed away. Without hesitation, Janette created space in the inpatient unit for the family to spend time with their loved one. Through all that Janette does, she cares deeply for those she leads, those she cares for and has consistently demonstrated exceptional dedication and compassion in her leadership and practice.
The Winnie Moore Award is presented every year during Nurses Week to a single Bridgton Hospital nurse in recognition of clinical nursing excellence. It’s named after Winnie Moore, who spent most of her career in Bridgton, working as a nurse at Northern Cumberland Memorial Hospital, which later became Bridgton Hospital. She was the director of nursing at Bridgton Hospital for 29 years and served on the hospital’s board of directors.
“The bar for winning this award is high, so that says a lot about Janette’s accomplishment” said Stephany Jacques, RN, president of Bridgton Hospital. “Her commitment to nursing excellence sets the tone for the quality of care we provide here at Bridgton Hospital, and the people of the Lakes Region community are fortunate to have her with us.”
