The holidays can be a festive time to celebrate with friends and family, but also a time with increased fire risk in our homes. The Connecticut Burn Center at Bridgeport Hospital, the state’s only burn center, is providing some simple ways to keep you and your family safe this holiday season.

“Nearly half of holiday decoration fires happen because decorations are placed too close to a heat source,” said Jason Bresky, RN, CBRN, trauma and burn injury prevention and outreach coordinator. http://ynh.care/13O

Greenwich Hospital announced that an anonymous supporter plans to recommend a transformative $25 million grant toward the new Smilow Cancer Hospital at Greenwich Hospital, honoring the legacy of renowned oncologist Dickerman Hollister Jr., MD.

“Throughout my career it has been my greatest privilege to forge meaningful bonds with my patients and their families,” said Dr. Hollister. “A diagnosis of cancer is a profound moment in a person’s life. My colleagues and I recognized this, and were dedicated to pursuing every possible option for our patients. I am deeply honored to know that Greenwich Hospital’s commitment to advanced cancer care is permanently woven into the fabric of our future through this gift.”

This extraordinary gift reflects Dr. Hollister’s lifelong commitment to compassionate, patient-centered cancer care and ensures that advanced oncology services will continue to shape the future of care for our community.

Measles is highly contagious and can lead to severe outcomes in at risk populations, especially newborn babies.

Measles is a vaccine preventable disease, so when there are groups of unvaccinated individuals, that increases the risk of it spreading.

“A common misconception is that if everybody else is vaccinated, then people don't have to vaccinate their child because there's no chance that they will get it,” said Thomas Murray, MD, PhD, associate medical director of Infection Prevention at Yale New Haven Children's Hospital and professor of Pediatrics at Yale School of Medicine.

“There can be herd immunity, but if you get pockets of unvaccinated people in a small area, that’s going to be a high-risk environment, even if the rest of the population is highly vaccinated.”

The Stamp Out Stroke outreach program, offered by Yale New Haven Hospital in collaboration with Yale School of Medicine, was represented at a Dec. 4 community stroke awareness event at Dixwell "Q" House in New Haven.
