Stafford Hospital commemorates its fifteenth anniversary in 2024. Opening its doors in 2009, Stafford Hospital quickly became a cornerstone of healthcare in the region, complementing the existing services and meeting the growing needs of the Stafford community.
Over the past decade and a half, Stafford Hospital has been a hub of healthcare activity, delivering thousands of babies and attending to hundreds of thousands of patients in the Emergency Department. The hospital owes much of its success to the efforts of its dedicated team, supported by numerous volunteers who have contributed countless hours of service.
In recent years, Stafford Hospital has expanded its services, introducing state-of-the-art facilities such as a cardiac catheterization lab and a Level II Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. These enhancements reflect the hospital’s commitment to advancing healthcare and meeting the evolving needs of its patients.
Innovations like the Virtual Nursing Program and the introduction of robotics in surgery further highlight Stafford Hospital’s dedication to excellence and patient-centered care. These advancements not only improve patient outcomes but also streamline operations, allowing staff to focus more on direct patient care.
Stafford Hospital’s impact extends beyond its walls through its Community Benefit Fund, which has awarded millions of dollars in grants to local nonprofit organizations. This demonstrates the hospital’s commitment to providing healthcare and supporting the community’s overall well-being.
While there will be no specific events or celebrations to mark this milestone, a hospital spokeswoman said the hospital’s focus remains steadfast on providing patient care and ensuring the health and well-being of its patients, staff, and community.

On January 25th, we invite you to experience the magic of Galette des Rois, a 700-year-old tradition celebrated across France throughout the entire month of January (and even beyond!). This sweet, almond-filled puff pastry topped with a golden crown isn’t just a treat—it’s a celebration! The lucky person who finds the fève (a porcelain charm hidden in one of the slices) becomes the King or Queen for the Day, and don’t worry—there will be plenty of royalty to go around! ??
But that’s not all! In France, Les Voeux (New Year’s wishes) continue throughout January, often accompanied by Champagne and good cheer. We’re bringing that festive spirit to you, with a lively evening packed with French food, wine, and music.
