Brattleboro Memorial Hospital (BMH) is a not-for-profit hospital that provides high quality inpatient, outpatient, and ambulatory services for the communities in the tri-state area of Vermont, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts.

From our family to yours, BMH wishes you a happy, safe, and healthy holiday season. We are grateful for the trust you place in us throughout the year to provide excellent healthcare services. And during this festive season we offer the following health and safety tips:

• Don’t drink and drive (and don’t allow others to drink and drive).
• Manage stress by managing expectations. Pace yourself, and don’t skimp on sleep!
• Bundle up when the conditions become cold or wet.
• Wash your hands often to help prevent the spread of germs.
• Feel free to wear a face mask in public settings (Covid-19 is still with us).
• Don’t let your busy schedule prevent you from getting to your healthcare appointments and screenings.
• Make sure to keep your flu, covid, and other vaccinations up to date.
• Practice fire safety: never leave heaters, candles, and festive lights unattended.
• Eat healthy and stay active. Limit your food portions, include plenty of fruits and vegetables, and be sure to get at least 2.5 hours a week of physical activity.
