UR MEDICINE | NOYES HEALTH CELEBRATES NATIONAL HOSPITAL WEEK, MAY 7-13

Tuesday, May 9, 2017

A hospital is more than a place where people go to heal, it is a part of the community that fosters health and represents hope. From providing treatment and comfort to the sick, to welcoming new life into the world, hospitals are central to a healthy and optimistic community. That’s the message organizers are touting with the 2017 National Hospital Week theme “The Healing Heart of Healthcare.”

The event theme is the centerpiece of a promotional campaign aimed at uniting health care facilities across the country during the May 7–13 celebration.  “The theme of National Hospital Week this year, first and foremost, is a celebration of people,” Amy Pollard, CEO of UR Medicine | Noyes Health, said.  “We’re extremely proud of each member of our staff and we recognize the important role they play in extending a sense of trust to our patients and our communities.”

UR Medicine | Noyes Health is the largest employer in Livingston County, and continues to grow and evolve to meet the healthcare needs of the region it serves.  As a diverse and broad-based healthcare organization, UR Medicine |Noyes Health provides in-patient and out-patient services in two locations, Dansville and Geneseo, including general surgery, maternity care, mental health, orthopedics, dialysis and physical therapy.  Facilities include a kidney disease and dialysis center and the new Ann and Carl Myers Cancer Center, a regional medical and radiation oncology treatment center in partnership with UR Medicine’s world-renowned Wilmot Cancer Institute.
