MONTOUR FALLS, N.Y. — The Schuyler Health Foundation recently welcomed new board members, Dr. Joseph Mannino and Kathie Notarfonzo.
Dr. Mannino recently retired from orthopedics medicine. He cared for Cayuga Health patients for more than 20 years. During his tenure, he took a strategic role in the early affiliation process as he cared for patients at Schuyler Hospital, as well as Cayuga Medical Center. Born and raised in Brooklyn and Queens, Mannino is a member of the Trumansburg community. He recently demonstrated his life-long commitment to service by signing up for the Army Reserve Corps.
Notarfonzo has been in the Watkins Glen area since the age of 11 and is a local business owner of Inner Peace Floats and Exercise Enterprise. Working for the NYS Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation for 37 years, she is currently assistant regional director. Notarfonzo also serves on the Advisory Council for Catholic Charities, volunteers for M.R. Hess Homeworks, and participates in many local community fundraisers.
The Schuyler Health Foundation also appointed the following board officers: Brenda Warren-Fitch, as chair; Tom Phillips, as vice-chair; and Jerry Mickelson, as secretary/treasurer.
The Schuyler Health Foundation says its mission is to inspire philanthropy in its communities to support the highest quality and equitable health-care services at Schuyler Hospital and Seneca View Skilled Nursing Facility.
Schuyler Hospital, part of Ithaca–based Cayuga Health, is a 16-bed critical access hospital, with a 120-bed skilled nursing facility attached. Schuyler Hospital’s main campus — overlooking Seneca Lake — is located in Montour Falls.
For more than 100 years, Schuyler Hospital has been the primary health-care provider in and around Schuyler County. It has evolved over the years into a network of providers, programs, and services that reaches throughout Schuyler County and into neighboring counties to meet the health-care needs of a population of over 32,000 residents.
