Hand washing, social distancing and staying at home have become the rules of the day as we all work to slow the virus spread and protect those most vulnerable.

Here at Orange Regional Medical Center, we are at the front line of fighting the disease in your community. Every hour brings a new reality and an unexpected challenge. We know this is uncharted territory for our country, our community and your hospital.

Already, generous donors and community groups are stepping forward. Girl Scout Troop 157 has brought cookies for our caregivers and the compassionate Bruderhof community has donated their handmade, children's furniture for our start-up day care for staff families. Many others are learning about our challenges and stepping forward to help. They include:
