What it means to be a nonprofit
Nonprofit hospitals, like Alice Peck Day Memorial Hospital, do not make profits for owners or shareholders. Funds collected from patient services pay for the service, and any profits are returned to the hospital for its operations.
But what happens if patients are not able to pay for care? APD has a long history of providing healthcare for all members of the community, regardless of their ability to pay. This is where donations help fill the gap, ensuring APD continues to serve the people of the Upper Valley. Thanks to your commitment to APD, we’re taking care of more patients with acute needs than ever before in every department of the hospital.
