The gift shop is run by volunteers and employees to meet the needs of our patients and their families. We are proud to be a source of comfort during uncertain times as well as to celebrate happy milestones along the way.
St. Joseph Healthcare is proud to be a host site for Project SEARCH. This program provides adults with disabilities the opportunity to learn skills in a business setting that often lead to employment after graduation.
The Arts in the Atrium program helps our patients and families heal through the gift of art. This program also keeps St. Joseph Healthcare connected to the greater Nashua community by offering opportunities to invite and welcome guests to the hospital for non-medical reasons.
Founded by the Grey Nuns, we continue to live their Mission by supporting the underprivileged in the greater Nashua community and partnering with local agencies to provide necessities to their clients.
