The Valley Hospital is now open at 4 Valley Health Plaza in Paramus. (You may need to use 650 Winters Avenue for GPS.) All emergency care is now being provided at this location. Emergency care is no longer available at our Ridgewood campus.
The Valley Hospital Auxiliary’s leadership consists of officers elected to an Executive Board and a Central Board, which includes representatives from surrounding towns. These boards guide the activities of the Auxiliary, including the planning of our premier fundraisers and other events.
