Community Health Improvement Plan

We are pleased to present the 2022 Greater Milford Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP),

produced by the Greater Milford Community Health Network: CHNA 6. The CHIP is the culmination of a
rigorous five-month process beginning in the fall of 2021 with the first community meeting of CHNA 6
to prioritize key findings of the 2021 Community Health Needs Assessment.

Together we identified three priorities to focus our collective efforts: Mental Health and Substance Use; Food Insecurity; and Homelessness. We also identified a central focus of health equity as a crosscutting
topic that impacts all of these areas.

Each priority has a series of objectives, accompanied by metrics and actionable strategies, which provide achievable health improvement for the greater
Milford region. We urge residents, municipalities, businesses and nonprofit organizations to review
the goals, objectives and strategies outlined in this plan to determine how we can work together to support these efforts and improve the health and wellbeing of all those who work and live in the Greater Milford region.

2024 Community Health Assessment

Beginning in October 2024, Milford Regional Medical Center (MRMC) initiated a comprehensive Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) to evaluate the health needs of individuals living in its 19-town service area in Massachusetts. This is the fourth CHNA 3-year cycle that the hospital has undertaken since 2015. The aim of the assessment is to emphasize MRMC’s commitment to the health of residents and align its health prevention efforts with the community’s greatest needs. The assessments examined a variety of health indicators, focusing on various health issues affecting the community’s different population groups. Milford Regional Medical Center contracted with Holleran Consulting, a research firm based in Wrightsville, Pennsylvania, to execute the CHNA. For the 2024 Final CHNA report, click here.
