As some pharmacies across the region face difficult times, Chester County Hospital’s Retail Pharmacy team has risen to the challenge, ensuring patients, staff, and the community have access to the care they need.

In the past year alone, the team filled more than 80,000 prescriptions, a 16% increase from last year, and expanded the Meds2Go program to help even more patients leave the hospital with their discharge medications in hand.

During a recent visit, COO Shane Flickinger had the chance to see their hard work in action. From expertly managing a growing prescription volume to helping patients understand their medications, the team’s commitment to safety, accuracy, and compassion is unmatched.

Their success is a reflection of what makes Chester County Hospital so special: people who go above and beyond for those they serve every single day.

Facing a terminal illness or chronic disease can be overwhelming for patients and their loved ones. Understanding options for pain management and end-of-life care can make a meaningful difference.

Dr. Stan Savinese, medical director of Penn Medicine Hospice, brings decades of experience in Family Medicine, Geriatrics, and Hospice and Palliative Care. Board certified in Geriatrics and Palliative Medicine, he has been recognized as a “Top Doc” in Hospice and Palliative Care multiple times.

Dr. Savinese is particularly passionate about a future where hospice care is available to all patients with a terminal illness, not just those who have discontinued active treatments or have a limited prognosis. http://spr.ly/61847Tg6C

At Chester County Hospital, heart care starts long before a diagnosis. It begins with education, prevention, and empowering our community to take charge of their heart health.

Our wellness team is proud to offer free cardiovascular screenings, a simple but powerful way to understand your risk and take meaningful steps toward a healthier future.

These screenings are more than just numbers. They are opportunities to start a conversation, identify risk factors early, and make small lifestyle changes that can lead to lasting improvements.

Designed for adults ages 20 to 79 who have never experienced a heart attack or stroke, each screening includes blood pressure, cholesterol and glucose testing, BMI calculation, and a ten-year cardiac risk estimate. Every participant also receives a one-on-one counseling session to review results and plan next steps for better heart health. http://spr.ly/61887TeAw

For 100 years, Chester County Hospital has been welcoming new life into the world, one tiny heartbeat at a time.

From the very first delivery in 1925 to the thousands of families we have had the honor to serve since, our story has always been one of care, compassion, and community. Each birth represents not only a new beginning for a family, but also a proud tradition that connects generations.

As we celebrate a century of delivering babies, we extend our sincere appreciation to our Maternal Child leadership team. Their dedication, expertise, and compassion ensure that every family’s first moments together happen in the safest and most supportive environment possible.

Here’s to 100 years of new beginnings and to the exceptional team helping to shape the next century of care.

Within minutes of her arrival, doctors at Chester County Hospital diagnosed Molly Fadden with a pulmonary embolism, a life-threatening blood clot in the lungs. She needed an embolectomy, an advanced procedure not performed at CCH. That's when the Penn Medicine Transfer team jumped in, dispatching a PENNSTAR helicopter to fly Molly to Penn Presbyterian Medical Center.

“Knowing there was a really good hospital I had access to in my time of need was important,” she said.
