Open to the public.  Please join the Community Foundation as we honor Orange Regional Medical Center and its Board of Directors, Foundation Board of Directors, Medical Staff, Volunteers, and Employees for redefining the region’s healthcare for generations to come by building the first new hospital in New York State in over 20 years.
