Our Rich History

Penacook Place was founded in 1968 by local clergy of Haverhill, Mass., concerned that there was no place for the aging and sick of their community to reside where dignity and respect would always be the cornerstone of their care. Since then, Penacook Place has strived to continue its mission to take care of those within its community with that same dignity and respect.

Today, Penacook Place is a member of Covenant Health, and continues to meet that mission and embrace Catholic health care ministry, which is rooted in a commitment to promote and defend human dignity. Sharing the vision of St. Teresa of Kolkata, we strive to be carriers of God’s love. “Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.”
