Local Urgent Care Center to Permanently Close

A local urgent care clinic is set to close due to a sizable financial hit, reports Becker’s Hospital Review.

The Claremont-based Valley Regional Hospital opened an urgent care clinic in Charlestown, New Hampshire, last September. This facility operated for approximately five months prior to its closure in mid-March due to the COVID-19 pandemic. According to a Facebook post from Valley Regional, this closure is now permanent.

The hospital stated, “Like most hospitals, Valley has been heavily impacted by the COVID-19 virus, and though we have started reopening services, it is clear that during this time of ongoing national and state emergency, we must concentrate our resources at our Claremont campus.”
