Maria Fareri Children's Hospital (MFCH) is a beautiful, modern facility that creates a family-centered environment ideal for healing despite the extreme acuity of the patients. We are an academic, regional referral center and trauma center in the Hudson Valley with a catchment area of 1.5 million people across urban, suburban, and rural communities just 25 miles north of New York City. With 136 beds, including 18 PICU beds, MFCH draws from the Hudson Valley, New Jersey and Connecticut.
