Rhinebeck, NY... Coming off of the heels of Hurricane Irene, Northern Dutchess Hospital is working to provide safe, quality patient care despite the water emergency in the Village of Rhinebeck. Water tanks have been brought on campus and the hospital is running 100% on these tanks, with all potable water. Some elective surgeries have been rescheduled, however the hospital is still able to accommodate emergency surgeries. Staff and patients are being asked to conserve water where possible.
