In 1926 the local newspaper wrote that Hanover Hospital began its history quotunder the most favorable auspices and with the hearty wellwishes of the entire community taking its place as an instrument of high service and everpresent help in the crises of existencequot Since its incorporation Hanover Hospital has grown to 106 licensed beds and continues to serve its original notforprofit purpose and embrace its founding principle of high service
