I’d like to commend our medical staff on your willingness to step up and meet our community’s health care needs during this extraordinary event.

Salem Health’s plans covered all expected and likely eclipse challenges.  Contingency plans were refined and practical, vetted and coordinated with internal and external stakeholders, and well-positioned for implementation should they be needed. Our organization, and our community partners were ready to respond. The 2017 Solar Eclipse was a home run. Thanks to all concerned.
