(Deerfield, MA) – Deerfield will no longer contract its health services through the Franklin Regional Council of Governments. The Deerfield Selectboard this week reiterated its plans to leave the COG health district and join Greenfield, Montague and Sunderland in a new health partnership that will be funded by a grant from the state. The main reason for the change is the desire for more nursing hours for seniors than the COG was willing to provide.
