Salute to Hero Parade
Earlier this afternoon, Danbury Fire Department, together with several neighboring Departments and first responders including Stony Hill Engine 11, and New Milford Fire Department participated in a "Salute to Hero Parade" for our front line healthcare workers at Nuvance Health Danbury Hospital.
A timely parade indeed, this week, Danbury Hospital celebrated their 135th Anniversary!
To add to today's events, we wish Danbury Hospital a happy 135th anniversary since opening its doors in 1885!
Founded in 1885, Danbury Hospital had humble beginnings as a small community hospital. They began to expand their purpose and services in 1970. "Danbury Hospital became a leading regional, multispecialty, teaching facility, and today is part of Nuvance Health, a seven-hospital health system spanning Connecticut and New York," the Hospital wrote on their Facebook Page.
