A sincere thank you to our team at NWCH for helping make last week's Employee Well-being Expo a wonderful success!

Our team members spend each day caring for patients, supporting families, and looking out for one another. The Expo provided an opportunity to turn that focus inward, offering wellness resources, healthy snacks, and fun activities designed to support their own well-being.

We're grateful to everyone who took time from their day to attend, and to the Well-being Committee, presenters, and community vendors whose contributions helped bring the event to life.

Thank you for the compassion, dedication, and care you bring to our community every day. We're honored to invest in the well-being of the people who make a difference in the lives of others. 🩵

⚠️ Important Measles Safety Alert

To help protect our patients, visitors, and team members, we are asking anyone who may have symptoms of measles or who believes they have been exposed to measles to call ahead for further instruction before visiting any Rochester Regional Health facility.

If you have the following:

🤒 A fever

AND at least one or more of these symptoms:

🔴 Rash
😷 Cough
👁️ Red or watery eyes

OR you believe you have been exposed to measles, please call your provider's office or the healthcare facility you plan to visit BEFORE arriving.

🚫 Do NOT enter the facility until you have spoken with a team member.

Calling ahead allows our staff to provide instructions and take appropriate precautions to help reduce the risk of exposure and keep everyone safe.

😷 If you require urgent or emergency care and cannot call ahead, wear a mask upon arrival and notify staff immediately of your symptoms or possible measles exposure.

Another successful MedQuest is in the books! 🩺

We were excited to welcome local high school students this summer for a unique opportunity to explore careers in health care through hands-on learning and real-world experiences.

Throughout the program, students connected with health care professionals, tried their hand at skills like suturing and injections, and learned about the many roles that make exceptional patient care possible.

Thank you to our incredible team members and community partners, including Mercy Flight Central, for helping bring these experiences to life and inspiring the next generation of health care workers! 🩵

Today, we’re sharing an important update with our community regarding Labor & Delivery services at Newark-Wayne Community Hospital.

As previously announced, due to changing community needs, declining delivery rates across the region, and significant workforce challenges, we made the difficult decision to end inpatient labor & delivery (L&D), newborn nursery, and postpartum services at the Marshall Birthing Center, pending approval by the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH).

After reviewing the closure application, NYSDOH has provided conditional approval to move forward with the planned closure of the Marshall Birthing Center, which will formally suspend all services on September 3, 2026.

To support a safe transition, Newark-Wayne Community Hospital will stop new Labor & Delivery admissions on August 31, 11:59 pm. After that time, patients who were planning to deliver at Newark-Wayne Community Hospital will be redirected to Rochester General Hospital or other regional birthing centers. Newborn nursery and postpartum services will remain open until September 3, 2026 in order to care for patients still recovering on the unit.

We know this news brings heavy emotions for many families, team members and community members. The Marshall Birthing Center has played an important role in our community, and we are incredibly grateful to the physicians, midwives, doulas, nurses and staff whose compassion and dedication have helped welcome generations of babies into the world.

Our commitment to our patients, team members, and community remains unwavering. Please know:

- We will continue to work directly with currently pregnant patients to ensure every family has a safe and personalized plan for their delivery and ongoing care.

- Outpatient prenatal and OB/GYN services will continue locally through our OB/GYN practices in Newark and Geneva.

- Newark-Wayne Community Hospital is not closing and will remain fully operational, including our 24/7 Emergency Department, surgical services and other inpatient and outpatient care.

- Emergency care for pregnant patients will continue, with protocols in place to assess, stabilize and transfer patients when needed.

- We have worked closely with our EMS partners and birthing centers inside and outside of RRH to support safe transfers and continuity of care for patients.

Thank you for the trust you place in us and for supporting the Marshall Birthing Center team during this transition. Their legacy of care will continue to be felt throughout our community for years to come.
