(Hartford, CT) - Guidehouse will host a virtual community forum on Thursday, February 20, 2025, from 11:30 AM – 1:30 PM to provide an additional opportunity for community members to share their views on the need for a freestanding birthing center in the greater Windham area. The virtual event is open to the public. Registration is required and each participant will have up to three minutes to speak, to maximize community participation and ensure a variety of voices can be heard. Guidehouse will confirm timeslots on a rolling basis.
This virtual event represents one component of the feasibility study Guidehouse is currently conducting. OHS required the study to protect reproductive health in the greater Windham community as part of the agreed settlement allowing the hospital to terminate inpatient obstetric services.
Guidehouse, Inc. is an independent agency and global consulting firm that provides advisory services to both the commercial and public sectors, with a specialized focus in healthcare. The birthing center assessment will be conducted independently of both OHS and Windham Hospital.
