Rehab isn’t just for injuries. It’s for life. 💙

In this video, occupational therapists Olivia and Vito share how OT supports so much more than recovery. It helps people regain independence, rebuild confidence and return to the routines, responsibilities and activities that make life feel like their own again.

From getting dressed in the morning to getting back to work, caring for your family or picking up the hobbies you love, occupational therapy meets you where you are and helps you move forward.

Preventive care is not always easy, and honestly, it is not always something we want to think about. It is easy to say “I feel fine” or “I will get to it later.”

Togetherish Mom reminds us that staying well starts before anything feels wrong. 💭

It is about choosing to take care of yourself now, not waiting for symptoms to make the decision for you.

That can look like making the call you have been putting off, scheduling the appointment or finally checking something off your list.

Those small steps matter more than we think, and they add up to peace of mind over time.

Let’s stay informed and stay well together. Nuvance Health, now part of Northwell Health, encourages you to prioritize preventive care and take that next step. 💙

April is Occupational Therapy Month, and Putnam Hospital is marking it with something new for the community. 👏

A new occupational therapy program is now open at the Jefferson Valley location, led by Nadeen Elhajjaoui, OTD, who specializes in hand and upper extremity care. The program supports patients recovering from injuries, surgery or conditions affecting the shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand.

“I’m honored to bring this level of specialized care to our community,” said Elhajjaoui. “My goal is to help patients regain comfort, confidence and independence so they can return to the activities that matter most.”

If something has been limiting how you move, work or go about your day, this is care designed to help you get back to it. 💙

Spring is a season of growth, renewal and building healthy habits. And that includes your brain. 🌱🧠

Your brain is a muscle. The more you use it, the stronger it gets. Memory, focus and cognitive function are not just things that change with age. They are things you can actively work on and improve over time through daily habits, mental activity and overall lifestyle.

This spring, consider adding brain health to the list of ways you're taking care of yourself.

Neurologist Dr. Matthew Imperioli shares how you can strengthen your memory and support long term brain health.

Today is World Health Day. This year, the World Health Organization (WHO) is encouraging people around the world to “Stand with Science” and celebrate the role science plays in improving and saving lives. 🔬🌍

This global campaign highlights how science helps protect and improve health and encourages people everywhere to share real stories of how science changes lives.

We see the impact of science every day in the screenings that detect cancer early, the technology that guides complex procedures, and the treatments, therapies and rehabilitation programs that help patients recover and get back to their lives.

The patient stories in this post are real examples of what it means to stand with science and how science continues to improve outcomes and quality of life for the patients and communities we serve.

Join the global conversation and stand with science. 🧬

If you've been told you need a spinal fusion for stenosis or spondylolisthesis, you may have more than one option. 👀

The TOPS System (Total Posterior Spine System) is an alternative to traditional lumbar spinal fusion designed to relieve pain while still allowing for motion at the treated level. For the right person, this can mean pain relief while maintaining more natural movement after surgery.

Spine surgery has come a long way, and new technology is giving people more options than ever before. In this video, neurosurgeon Dr. Joshua Marcus explains:

Your kidneys and your heart are more connected than you think. 🫀🫘

When the kidneys are not working the way they should, it can put extra stress on the heart and blood vessels. Over time, that can lead to serious heart-related complications.

In fact, people with chronic kidney disease are more likely to experience heart problems than kidney failure itself.

The daily operations of a hospital depend on many moving parts, including the people who maintain the building, systems and spaces that support patient care.

As we wrap up March, our Unsung Heroes spotlight recognizes Putnam Hospital’s Facilities and Engineering team, who work behind the scenes every day to keep our hospital safe, functional and comfortable for our patients, visitors and staff. 🔧💙

Their work may not always be visible, but it is essential to patient care and to the daily operations of our hospital. We are grateful for their skill, responsiveness and commitment to keeping our hospital running.
