Local First Responders Pay Tribute to Nuvance Health Frontline Healthcare Workers with Salute to Hero Parade

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.

Thank you to all who came out today in support of our healthcare workers who are working tirelessly to care for COVID-19 patients.

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.
