I started this thread for three reasons... first, I misread the recent thread about the Wolfeboro Hospital Fair question as a "fair question about the Wolfeboro hospital", and am curious.  Second, if I ever need to get me or someone else to a hospital fast, I don't know where to go. Quality is unknown and distances are far. Last, as I plan to move to Moultonboro full-time and "geezer issues" catch up with me, I want to know what my options are.

Response time by the police,fire and medical personal in town is excellent. A close relative who lives next door has needed help on two different occations. It really is impressive how fast help arrives. The last time was life threatening and he was transported to the lakes region hospital in Laconia. We were with him through the whole experience and I would not hesitate to use them again if needed. I also know they will med. flight you to Dartmouth if they do not have the expertise to provide the care you need.
