Who We Are:
Southern New Hampshire Health has been a cornerstone of the region since 1893, delivering high-quality, compassionate care close to home. Anchored by Southern New Hampshire Medical Center—a 188-bed, DNV-accredited hospital in downtown Nashua with a Level III-N trauma center, Level II Special Care Nursery, and Magnet® designation for nursing excellence—we offer a full spectrum of services from primary care to advanced diagnostics and specialized treatments.
Employee Health & Wellness is a vital part of our mission. We are committed to creating a safe, healthy, and supportive environment for our workforce. Through proactive health screenings, immunization programs, wellness initiatives, and education, we empower employees to maintain optimal health and well-being—because caring for our team means better care for our community.

Participate in patient care in person, via telephone, and telehealth under provider supervision.
Administer prescribed medications, treatments, immunizations, and perform point-of-care testing.
Collect and screen patient history and health-related information; communicate findings to providers.
Document care activities accurately in the medical record.
Assist with pre-visit preparation, including coordinating testing and patient outreach.
Perform administrative duties such as medical records and patient service tasks as needed.
