In addition to our main hospital campus, we operate 20 regional health care facilities, including medical centers in the communities of Cambridge, Corinth, Granville, Greenwich, Salem, Whitehall, Hudson Falls, and Wilton.
Recognizing the hospitals importance to the well-being of this broad population, the hospitals volunteer Board of Governors and our administrative and medical staffs have worked diligently over the years to recruit outstanding physicians and provide local people with a broad scope of services and expertise that would otherwise not be available without traveling to more distant cities.
We embrace our responsibility to elevate the health of our community. We have established a diverse array of community outreach programs, bringing our expertise and services to people in outlying portions of our service area. These outreach programs are especially important for low-income individuals and families who may otherwise fail to seek out healthcare due to financial or transportation concerns. We take our role as a primary provider of high-quality care for our friends, families and neighbors very seriously, and we are proud to be such an integral part of the continued success of the Glens Falls community and surrounding region.
