💙 MidHudson Regional Hospital Makes a Difference 💙
MidHudson Regional Hospital, a member of WMCHealth, recently completed an employee-driven Fall Food Drive, and we’re excited to share the impact it made right here in our community.
Thanks to the generosity of our MidHudson Regional Hospital team, we helped contribute to the 1,500+ food items collected across the WMCHealth network to support individuals and families facing food insecurity.
This November, employees at MidHudson Regional Hospital donated non-perishable foods and essential supplies. All contributions from our hospital were delivered to Dutchess Outreach in Poughkeepsie, supporting their vital work in providing resources, dignity, and hope to local families.
This effort reflects our ongoing commitment to caring for our Hudson Valley neighbors, both inside our hospital and throughout the community.
A heartfelt thank-you to every team member who helped make a difference! 💙🙏

🏃♂️💙 Running for a Cause: Marathon Team Raises Funds for WMCHealth
🏅 Congratulations to all who conquered the TCS New York City Marathon!
This year, a dedicated group of Westchester Medical Center Health Network (WMCHealth) employees, patients, and family members went the distance — 26.2 miles — to support WMCHealth.

☀November is Epilepsy Awareness Month☀
☀️Congratulations to Westchester Medical Center's Section Chief of Epilepsy, Manisha Holmes, MD published in JAMA ☀️New Study Offers Hope for People with Newly Diagnosed Focal Epilepsy ☀️
The results of a large-scale study of people with epilepsy were just published in a paper in JAMA Neurology, offering new hope and clearer expectations for people newly diagnosed with focal epilepsy. The study was authored by Sarah N. Barnard, MD, MIPH; Zhibin Chen, PhD; and Manisha Holmes, MD, Epilepsy Section Chief at Westchester Medical Center, et al, on behalf of Human Epilepsy Project (HEP) study investigators.
Key findings include:
🔵 Most patients (60%) became seizure-free, but only 27% achieved this with their first anti-seizure medication (ASM).
🔵 Seizure control usually takes more than one year—the median time to seizure freedom was 12 months.
🔵 One in four patients developed treatment-resistant epilepsy, continuing to have seizures despite multiple adequate medications.
🔵 The first year after diagnosis is the most challenging—63% still had seizures during that time, including subtle episodes that may be overlooked.
