February is American Heart Month and it’s time to take charge of your blood pressure. Schedule your wellness check with our team today at 512-486-6862. #heartmonth #hearthealth #bloodpressure

Anxiety and stress are part of life, but they shouldn’t take over your life. If you frequently feel nervous, have trouble sleeping, or are excessively fatigued, schedule a telehealth appointment with our Outpatient Mental Health Center at (516)-572-6822. #mentalhealthmatters #nyc

If you’re starting a family this year, NUMC’s Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology is here to help you. Giving birth is less intimidating with a team of skilled medical staff focused on providing compassionate birth support to all parents. #nassaucounty #eastmeadowny

It can be hard to get your daily exercise in winter! But a little bit of movement goes a long way. A 30-minute walk will get your heart rate up and reduce risk of disease later in life. Stay warm by wearing layers and avoiding cotton, which stays wet on your skin. #hearthealth

Health is all about moderation. It’s easy to balance a plate when you think about it like this: fruits and vegetables, whole grains (barley, brown rice), and protein (white meat, fish, beans, etc.). Keep it colorful and delicious! #healthyeatinghabits #hearthealth

Oh, them? Just casually saving lives! All in a day’s work. #EMSWeek #firstresponders

We owe everything to those who have stepped up and gone the extra mile during this pandemic. Thank you to our first responders who have met the challenge with unflinching resolve. #EMSWeek #healthcareheroes

May 16th through 21st marks the 46th annual EMS Appreciation Week. Hundreds of first responders serve Nassau County, and we are indebted to them for the care and expertise they bring to every emergency situation. To help celebrate this week we’ll have cake, meals, and personalized gifts in the dedicated EMS Lounge at NUMC. Don’t forget to thank your local first responder! #EMSWeek

Happy National Hospital Week! We have served the Long Island area since 1935 and we’re proud to provide essential care to all patients, even small and stuffed ones. #longisland #hospitalweek

Hospital History: Today we say happy birthday to Florence Nightingale. Her birthday coincides with National Nurses Week AND National Hospital Week. She is credited as a founder of modern nursing, and her views on sanitation and health changed the direction of healthcare forever! #longisland #nightingale

Happy National Nurses Week! We wouldn’t get far without these healthcare heroes. Navigating the pandemic and ensuring every patient is tended to with compassion is no easy task, so make some noise for our hard working nurses this week. #nursesweek #longisland
