North Adams Regional Hospital has received a Gold recognition from MassEcon in the 21st Annual Team Massachusetts Economic Impact Awards.

MassEcon is the state’s private sector partner in promoting business growth in Massachusetts.

NARH, which reopened last spring after being closed for a decade, was among three organizations honored in Western Massachusetts for its contributions to local employment and economic prosperity.

“Berkshire Health Systems, and the entire staff of North Adams Regional Hospital, are honored to be recognized for this achievement,” said Laurie Lamarre, BHS vice president and NARH chief operating officer. “The reopening of North Adams Regional Hospital fulfilled a vision of restoring acute care services to the North Berkshire region, and my colleagues at NARH are committed to improving the health and well-being of all of the people we serve.”
