As a result of this affiliation, New Milford Hospital and its patients are the beneficiaries of a comprehensive and enhanced health care delivery system for today and the future. We maintain our identity, autonomy, local perspective and tradition of responsiveness to area communities with this affiliation while further enhancing our clinical programs.
In 1997 we also affiliated with the New Milford Visiting Nurse Association, which became a subsidiary of the New Milford Hospital Holding Corporation. This relationship enables us to provide a continuity of patient care from before admission, through your hospital stay and home again.
