The resolution congratulates Brattleboro Memorial Hospital on its 120th anniversary, highlighting its unique origins linked to the marriage of Thomas Thompson and Elizabeth Rowel, which led to a significant financial legacy for the establishment of a local hospital. The hospital, incorporated in 1904 as the Hemlocks Hospital, began with a 37-bed facility and a nursing training program. Over the years, it has expanded to meet the community's growing healthcare needs, adding several buildings and services, and is now recognized as a leading healthcare provider in Vermont for its social responsibility and community benefit.

The resolution, offered by various senators and representatives from Brattleboro, acknowledges the hospital's contributions to the community and its evolution into a comprehensive healthcare facility with 61 licensed beds and over 600 staff members. The General Assembly expresses its congratulations on this significant milestone and directs the Secretary of State to send a copy of the resolution to the hospital.
