Hassan meets Healthcare Leaders in the Valley

US Senator from New Hampshire Maggie Hassan discussed her efforts on Capital Hill while visiting the Mt. Washington Valley Adult Day Center yesterday. The Senator spent the late morning hours discussing care of the elderly with community healthcare leaders. She says, “We got an increase for meals on wheels programs. That’s something the entire New Hampshire delegation fought really hard for. If we reauthorize the Older Americans Act it will expand access to chronic pain management.” She said the meeting was scheduled so that she could inform those community members of her efforts and to get feedback to better ensure that what she is doing in DC is, in fact, helping the community and in touch with the situation here in New Hampshire.
