(Goshen, NY- January 20, 2013)  The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit in The Rowley Family Birthing Center at Orange Regional Medical Center recently received gifts for its tiniest patients.  In addition to financial support provided to NICU families in need at ORMC, Hailey’s Hope Foundation helped further strengthen their NICU care by donating a digital infant scale, breast pumps, and a digital camera and printer so new parents can have photos of their newborn.  “The support provided by Hailey’s Hope Foundation is invaluable to the families and babies we care for,” said Theresa Fay Conte, Orange Regional’s Nursing Service Administrator for Women and Children.  “We look forward to continuing our partnership with Hailey’s Hope Foundation and our ability to assist families in need.”
