NORTHWELL HEALTH
DID YOU KNOW ...
Katz Institute for Women ’ s Health Northwell created the Katz Institute for Women ’ s Health , the only network of experts devoted to every aspect of women ’ s care as part of Northwell ’ s commitment to # RaiseHealth for all .
Paradis pointed out much of medicine over the last 200 years has been defined by the simplistic research construct of the “ 75 kilogram spherical man ”.
“ So much of the research , so much of the drug testing for so long has been based around adult males , sidelining women and minorities . We recently started an initiative to recognise what is different and unique about women ’ s health and how we can make sure that we address those appropriately ,” he said .
How Northwell is reaching out to New Yorkers The image of a simple bubble travelling on the breeze through the Big Apple is used by Northwell Healthcare as a symbol of life ’ s resilience and fragility and is part of their Raise Health awareness campaign .
The advert released in February 2021 challenges New Yorkers to collectively raise their expectations when it comes to healthcare – a year after the city became the epicentre of the COVID-19 pandemic in the US .
As Northwell continues to roll-out the COVID-19 vaccines to millions of people , the healthcare provider has vowed to make public health their biggest priority .
