Eagleville Hospital’s legacy has always been a natural selling point for Denise Hennessey, the hospital’s Clinical Recruitment Manager. After all, few substance use disorder treatment facilities have been around as long as Eagleville.
Much of Wendy Maneval’s extensive career has been spent at the forefront of health policy and health law. But the times she feels the most satisfied is when she’s working closely with the people for whom she’s advocating. And so, she describes her recent appointment as Eagleville Hospital’s Chief Legal Officer as”putting me right where I need to be.”

Emily Masslofsky was recently named Eagleville Hospital’s Patient and Family Advocate. In her new role, she’ll be working directly with patients, resolving any grievances and ensuring that they’re provided with everything they need in their recovery. She’ll also assist in updating services in response to the patient satisfaction surveys.
As part of our ongoing effort to engage with alumni, family, staff and the surrounding community, Eagleville Hospital has revamped its three official social media accounts. We’re excited to announce a brand-new Facebook page and a revitalized presence on Twitter and Instagram @EaglevilleHospital.
The field of social work is a key component to many establishments on a macro level. The interpersonal communication that social workers provide with patients or people in need, serves as an important stepping stone to the person’s recovery or general improvement. In the realm of drug and alcohol rehabilitation, this kind of expertise is fully realized. Specifically at Eagleville Hospital, the social workers who are present on campus are an integral component of the staff, and their counseling efforts assist patients in making a full recovery, and making that recovery to be attainable in the first place.
Eagleville is forming our first ever Advisory Council. It will be a council that meets quarterly and will be comprised of previous patients, family members of previous patients and community members who will be given an opportunity to voice their ideas/needs to enhance our current services and overall patient and family satisfaction.
