  • 2019 Community Health Needs Assessment Survey
    COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT 2019 To all New Yorkers: As New York City’s public health care system, our goal is to empower you to live your healthiest life. Clinical care starts with you and your health care team, but we recognize that many factors impact your health beyond medical care alone – a safe home environment, space to be physically active, access to fresh food, even exposure to daily stress and poor social well-being can impact your health outcomes. To assess and prioritize the greatest health needs of the neighborhoods and communities we serve, NYC Health + Hospitals conducted a comprehensive and inclusive process to complete this Community Health Needs Assessment for 2019. The findings represent the voices of the patients we serve, clinical experts and community partners, and are backed by quantitative data analysis. Recognizing that the health needs of patients coming through our hospital doors may not represent the wider health needs of the community, we embarked on an extensive stakeholder engagement process led by OneCity Health, who built new relationships with community stakeholders through the Delivery System Reform Incentive Payment (DSRIP) program. For the first time, we conducted a system-wide assessment to identify priorities that need to be addressed city-wide and will allow us to maximize our resources in response. We believe that we should reliably deliver high-quality services and that patients should have a consistent experience at our facilities. Since our 2016 assessment, we have worked tirelessly to address significant health needs of the community and to make it easier for our patients to access our services: • We opened and renovated dozens of community-based health centers to expand access to primary and preventive care.

  • Standpoints on Psychiatric Deinstitutionalization Alix Rule Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degre
    Standpoints on Psychiatric Deinstitutionalization Alix Rule Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2018 © 2018 Alix Rule All rights reserved ABSTRACT Standpoints on Psychiatric Deinstitutionalization Alix Rule Between 1955 and 1985 the United States reduced the population confined in its public mental hospitals from around 600,000 to less than 110,000. This dissertation provides a novel analysis of the movement that advocated for psychiatric deinstitutionalization. To do so, it reconstructs the unfolding setting of the movement’s activity historically, at a number of levels: namely, (1) the growth of private markets in the care of mental illness and the role of federal welfare policy; (2) the contested role of states as actors in driving the process by which these developments effected changes in the mental health system; and (3) the context of relevant events visible to contemporaries. Methods of computational text analysis help to reconstruct this social context, and thus to identify the closure of key opportunities for movement action. In so doing, the dissertation introduces an original method for compiling textual corpora, based on a word-embedding model of ledes published by The New York Times from 1945 to the present. The approach enables researchers to achieve distinct, but equally consistent, actor-oriented descriptions of the social world spanning long periods of time, the forms of which are illustrated here. Substantively, I find that by the early 1970s, the mental health system had disappeared from public view as a part of the field of general medicine — and with it a target around which the existing movement on behalf of the mentally ill might have effectively reorganized itself.

The lineages as traced by these Vv^riters have been considerably developed, how^ever, by the addition of everything obtainable concerning individual members of the Quackenbush or Quackenbos family, and in almost every case the baptismal and marriage records have been verified by comparison with accurate transcriptions of the several church registers. Mili- tary and naval records, obtained from official sources, have been inserted in the text, as well as numerous traditions, taken from local histories or communicated by descendants of the principals, but there has been no attempt at systematic bio- graphical notices except in the cases of professional men.

THE CANADIAN HANDBOOK AND TOURIST'S GUIDE. INTRODUCTION. The Nooks and Corners of Canada, and. more especially of the Lower Province, in addition to the interest they awaken as important sources of Commercial and Agricultural wealth, are invested with no ordinary attraction for the Naturalist, the Antiquary, the Historian, and the Tourist in quest of pleasure or of health. We have often wondered why more of the venturesome spirits amongst our transatlantic friends do not tear themselves away, even for a few months, from London fogs, to visit our distant but more favoured clime. How is it that so few, comparatively speaking, come to enjoy the bracing air and bright summer skies of Canada ? With what zest could the enterprising or eccentric among them undertake a ramble, with rod and gun in hand, from Niagara to Labrador, over the Laurentian Chain of Moun- tains, choosing as rallying points, whereat to compare notes, the summit of Cape Eternity in the Saguenay district, and 6 Introduction.

The winter had been one of unusual severity, and at the beginning of the quarter the weather was still of too unsettled and inclement a nature to permit the immediate resumption of work on the water-front. The greatest activity of the Department in the early part of the season was, in fact, in the repair and renewal of piers damaged by floating ice and otherwise. At new Pier No. I, North river, up to the 1st of April, ten arches had been completed, with the exception of about 1,200 square feet of decking, ana the crib for Arch No. 11 placed in position, DEPARTMENT OF DOCKS. fillea with concrete up to the formation level, and two courses of beton blocks placed thereon.

  • HHC Lincoln Hospital Helps Bronx Residents Apply for Health Insurance Before Affordable Care Act Deadline
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Contact: Renelda Higgins-Walker (Lincoln) 718-579-5777 [email protected] HHC Lincoln Hospital Helps Bronx Residents Apply for Health Insurance Before Affordable Care Act Deadline Bilingual Counselors Available On-Site to Help Uninsured Individuals Sign Up for Affordable Healthcare Coverage (New York, NY – March 25, 2014) New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation’s Lincoln Hospital officials today announced that bilingual health insurance enrollment counselors will be available on-site to help New Yorkers access affordable health insurance before the March 31 Affordable Care Act (ACA) deadline. English and Spanish-speaking counselors are available at Lincoln to help with the enrollment process. Lincoln will partner with HHC’s own health plan, MetroPlus, and with HealthFirst, to provide walk-in hours for new patients and appointments for existing patients by 718-579-5000, to meet with bilingual counselors from 9:00am - 5:00pm, Monday - Friday, free of charge, at 234 East 149th Street. The lack of access to bilingual counselors has been identified as a major barrier for enrolling limited English-speaking New Yorkers in health insurance under the Affordable Care Act (ACA). That’s why HHC and Lincoln are making available certified, bilingual enrollment counselors to inform and educate the community about the best health insurance options and ways to minimize premiums and out-of-pocket costs. March 31 is the deadline for individuals to enroll in health insurance coverage to avoid a penalty for not obtaining insurance in 2014 under the ACA. Experts estimate that over 70 percent of City residents qualify for financial aid in the health insurance market.
