  • Queens County Assessment
    Northwell Health 2019 Community Health Needs Assessment: Queens County Assessment Encompassing the following Northwell Health Hospital: Long Island Jewish Forest Hills 1 Queens County Health Indicator Status Since 2016 CHNA The 2016-2019 Implementation Plan activities have had an impact in improving and meeting New York State Prevention Agenda Objectives that were related to health disparities, chronic disease, safe environments, maternal child health, STD/HIV, vaccine preventable diseases, healthcare-associated infections and behavioral health as shown below. Since 2018, Northwell Health has delivered over 13,000 community health programs and over 22,000 health screenings. Examples of interventions that helped achieved these goals include robust chronic disease and cancer screening programs; implementation of culturally relevant evidence-based chronic disease self-management education; prevention of childhood obesity through school- based projects as well as promotion of policies and practices in support of breastfeeding; creation of community environments that promote and support healthy food and beverage choices and physical activity; elimination of exposure to secondhand smoke and prevention of the initiation of tobacco use by youth, especially among low socioeconomic status (SES) populations and the promotion of tobacco cessation, especially among low SES populations and those with poor mental health; and strengthened infrastructure to promote mental, emotional and behavioral wellbeing. However, the burden of health disparities, chronic disease, obesity and behavioral health issues is still present as demonstrated below by the indicators that have not met the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) Prevention Agenda Objectives and/or have worsened indicating the need to continue to primarily address the 2019-2024 priority agenda items of Prevent Chronic Disease and Promote Well Being and Prevent Mental and Substance Use Disorders as well as including strategies that can improve other priority areas as well.

The outlook is stable. Credit overview The rating on Northwell reflects its favorable enterprise profile, highlighted by an expansive footprint with broad geographic coverage in New York State, including 19 controlled hospitals (six tertiary) and a comprehensive and full continuum of care through its ambulatory, post-acute, and large physician network. Northwell is also anchored by its leading and growing market position in a sizable and diverse service area spanning six counties, with a population base of approximately 8.2 million. It maintains a good financial profile, despite an expected weak fiscal 2020, with a sizable operating deficit at the six-month interim period ended June 30, primarily reflecting the disruption and challenges of operating during the COVID-19 pandemic.

  • 1 a Letter from Hospital Providers
    A Letter from Hospital Providers Regarding COVID-19 and Homelessness in New York City April 15, 2020 Dear Mayor Bill de Blasio, Governor Andrew Cuomo, NYC Department of Social Services Commissioner Steven Banks, New York City Emergency Management Commissioner Deanne Criswell, City Council Speaker Corey Johnson, and City Council Member Stephen Levin: We are frontline workers—physicians, nurses, social workers, and others—from hospitals across New York City writing to express our concerns and recommendations specific to the thousands of New Yorkers who are homeless during the COVID-19 pandemic. These individuals cannot stay home, because they have no home. They are at high risk for contracting and dying from COVID-19. Homeless New Yorkers are our patients and our neighbors. We commend you for steps you have taken to protect them and to preserve the capacity of our hospitals, such as creating isolation sites for people experiencing homelessness who have symptoms of COVID-19 and developing protocols to keep people with only mild symptoms out of emergency departments. Many of us have expressed our concerns publicly and privately, and are appreciative that several of these concerns have been addressed. We remain troubled, however, at the slow and still inadequate response to protect homeless New Yorkers. As of April 12, there were already 421 homeless New Yorkers known to be infected with COVID-19 and 23 had died from the disease. Black and Latinx New Yorkers are disproportionately affected by homelessness and incarceration (itself associated with both homelessness and risk of exposure to coronavirus), layering health inequity upon health inequity.

Surges in patient volume and the loss of revenue when elective proce- dures were suspended by state order left local facilities feeling pushed to their limits. But in WHO are the the ensuing months, and with the crisis appearing top-paid hospital Ito be winding down, they say they have learned executives and important lessons that will help them change the doctors? way they work. PAGES 12-14 “We were built to withstand blows and deliver care,” said Dan Widawsky, chief f nancial of cer of NYU Langone. And in picking themselves back up, health systems have become better prepared for the next disaster, he noted. “An analogy I like to use comes from hockey,” he said. “You don’t want to skate to the puck; you want to skate to where the puck is going.” Thinking ahead Having to go through the thick of the pandemic last year without necessary resources really put the old way of doing business into perspective, said Dr. Mitchell Katz, president and CEO of NYC Health + Hospitals. “One of the mistakes of previous management practices is not keeping excess inventory because of the risk of medi- cation or equipment expiring,” he said.
