Officials object to ER Closing

Hollie’s Garden is nestled next to the Littman Cancer Center in Cornwall. Named for the late Hollie Atzrott, it’s a place where patients can escape for a few moments and relax in a tranquil setting.

Effective Oct. 1, St. Luke’s Cornwall Hospital will be closing its emergency department to align itself with healthcare reform trends and initiatives.

On Aug. 18, Assemblyman James Skoufis received a conference call from the Department of Health in response to his letter about the closing of the Cornwall Emergency Room.
