In celebration of MDI Hospital and Health Centers being named one of the "2024 Best Places to Work in Maine," please join us in hearing from employees about why they love working here!

"I love working for MDI Hospital because... MDI Hospital reminds me of my hometown hospital back in Rogersville Tennessee, my fellow medical imaging technologists that I work with are like family, always there for each other not only for work but outside of work also. I`m from a small town in Tennessee and have 30 plus years in the radiology field with 20 years of travel experience, when I came to MDI Hospital for a travel contract it was just supposed to be for the summer and after several months of being here and working with the department it began to feel just like my own hometown hospital where not just only the medical imaging department but the entire hospital staff feels like family. My wife and I talked (she is originally from New Hampshire) and decided to stay in the area, I have been here just over 5 years now and couldn`t ask for a better place to work."

- James Ewing, CT Technologist

Cheryl Novins, a co-chair of the league alongside Nancy Fitzgerald and Laura Morris said, "We are excited about the success of the event and feel fortunate that we have so local businesses sponsor holes and donate gift certificates and lovely items to our raffle. The golf course was full of pink-wearing golfers and it was wonderful to see so many locals come together for such a worthy cause."
