It combines community hospital services with academic medicine, sharing knowledge and resources to offer access to advanced technology and treatment options.

The network’s goal is to improve patients’ lives by providing high-quality care near home, supported by the expertise of the University of Vermont Colleges of Medicine and Nursing and Health Sciences.
