Manchester, NH - February 23, 2026 - Both Southern New Hampshire Health (SNHH) and Montagne Powers are actively expanding their teams, signaling growth and investment in the region's healthcare and marketing sectors. These developments point to a robust local economy and increasing demand for both medical services and strategic marketing solutions.

Southern New Hampshire Health Bolsters Patient Care Leadership

SNHH, a major healthcare provider serving Nashua, Merrimack, and surrounding communities, announced the appointment of Amy Dube as Senior Vice President, Patient Care, on February 1st. This strategic hire underscores SNHH's commitment to delivering high-quality, patient-centered care. Dube brings over two decades of progressive experience in healthcare leadership to the role, most recently serving as Chief Nursing Officer at St. Joseph Hospital, also in Nashua. Her deep understanding of clinical operations and patient advocacy makes her a valuable asset to the SNHH system.

Reporting directly to CEO Ralph Lamson, Dube will have broad oversight of the entire patient care experience across SNHH's network. This includes Southern New Hampshire Medical Center, facilities in Merrimack, and all affiliated services. In a healthcare landscape increasingly focused on value-based care and patient satisfaction, Dube's role is pivotal. Analysts predict that her focus will be on optimizing workflows, enhancing interdisciplinary collaboration among medical professionals, and championing initiatives to improve patient outcomes.

SNHH, like many healthcare organizations, faces ongoing challenges including staffing shortages and the need to adapt to rapidly evolving technologies. Dube's experience in navigating these complexities will be crucial as SNHH continues to grow and serve the region's healthcare needs. The appointment also comes at a time of increasing emphasis on preventative care and population health management, areas where effective patient care leadership is paramount. The hospital system recently invested heavily in telehealth infrastructure, and it is expected Dube will play a key role in integrating these digital services with traditional care pathways.

Montagne Powers Adds Creative & Digital Expertise

On the marketing front, Montagne Powers, a full-service advertising and marketing agency based in Manchester, announced a wave of new hires designed to strengthen its creative and digital capabilities. The agency welcomed four new team members: Katelyn Kiley as Digital Marketing Specialist, Brian Mousseau as Senior Account Executive, Jessica Brown as Graphic Designer, and Maria Koutsozis as Digital Marketing Assistant.

The influx of talent suggests Montagne Powers is experiencing significant growth and is well-positioned to capitalize on the increasing demand for sophisticated marketing strategies. Kiley, joining from Granite State College, will contribute to the agency's expanding digital footprint, likely focusing on areas like search engine optimization (SEO), social media marketing, and content creation. Mousseau, bringing experience from Compass Workforce Solutions, will be responsible for managing client relationships and ensuring campaign success.

Brown's graphic design skills, honed at The Griffin Group, will enhance the agency's visual communication offerings. And Koutsozis, previously with Hannoush Jewelers, will provide essential support to the digital marketing team, assisting with campaign implementation and data analysis.

Montagne Powers has a long-standing reputation for serving a diverse range of clients across various industries. This expansion comes as businesses increasingly recognize the importance of a robust online presence and data-driven marketing strategies. The agency's focus on both creative design and digital execution positions it as a valuable partner for companies looking to reach their target audiences effectively. Local business leaders suggest Montagne Powers is particularly well suited to support the growing number of small and medium-sized enterprises in the region.

Regional Economic Outlook

These developments at SNHH and Montagne Powers are indicative of a positive economic trend in Southern New Hampshire. The healthcare sector remains a vital driver of job growth and economic activity, while the marketing and advertising industry benefits from the overall health of the business community. Analysts predict continued expansion in both sectors, fueled by population growth and increasing investment in the region.
