—Rabbi Sandy Bogin
Sarah Neuman, The New Jewish Home – Westchester

Good afternoon everyone.

I invite you all to pause for a moment. It is a beautiful day. The sun is shining and it’s finally beginning to feel like spring.

—Rabbi Sandy Bogin
Sarah Neuman, The New Jewish Home – Westchester

Good afternoon, and happy nurses week!

This is Rabbi Bogin. I invite you to pause a moment, take a look at the people around you at this moment. They are our team. We take care of people, and we let people take care of us, physically and emotionally.

At a challenging time, a young doctor at The New Jewish Home finds the confidence to cope

A chance encounter with a resident during the early days of the COVID-19 crisis gave Dr. Daniel Gaballa the confidence to navigate in a challenging environment.

Before COVID-19, Dr. Gaballa visited The New Jewish Home just once a month to see a small group of patients as part of his training in geriatric medicine. Having already completed training in Internal Medicine, Dr. Gaballa is now pursuing a two-year geriatrics fellowship at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.
