Penobscot Valley Hospital in Lincoln, Maine has been serving the Lincoln Lakes Region of northern Penobscot County since 1973 when federal legislation passed to establish Hospital Administrative District #1 for the 15-town community, ensuring the availability of future emergency medical care. Over forty years later, PVH continues to serve the needs of our community, now as a non-profit Critical Access Hospital with 25 beds. The 10-member board of directors is made up of men and women who live, work, and receive healthcare in our region. PVH employs approximately 200 people in gainful employment and is estimated to have an annual economic output of just under $50 million, primarily reinvested back into the local economy.
