Bradley Memorial Merges With New Britain
(Southington, CT; May 23, 2006) – Bradley Memorial Hospital in Southington, CT, went live with EmpowER on May 22. Bradley is a sister hospital to long-time ECDS hospital New Britain General, and the two facilities recently merged together under The Hospital of Central Connecticut.
"The EmpowER System is really incredible,” says ED Chief Jeffrey Finkelstein, MD. “It’s the patients who truly benefit, through increased accuracy, speed, and the many safeguards the system offers. We referred a patient to another facility, and one of their doctors called to say they had never seen such a well-organized and complete medical chart."
HCC was formed in October 2006 with the merger of the 330-bed New Britain General Hospital — founded in 1899 — and the 84-bed Bradley Memorial Hospital and Healthcare Center in Southington — opened in 1938.
