Stony Brook Nursing Team Gives Voice To COVID-19 Patients Through “My Story” Initiative

Stony Brook University Hospital (SBUH) has found a unique way to help give a voice to patients that have been silenced by COVID-19. As hospitals across the nation have been forced to suspend hospital visitations, meaning those who are battling the Coronavirus are doing so without in person support from loved ones, SBUH launched the “My Story” initiative. In an effort to strengthen meaningful interactions with those that are hospitalized and caretakers, last month the Hospital began to reach out to the families of patients, many of whom are intubated and incapable of talking, to find out about patients’ personal lives.

“It’s such an unprecedented time with no visitors,” explained Nurse Practitioner April Plank. “‘My Story’ is giving families an opportunity to tell us about their loved one that we are caring for.” Plank, along with a nursing team that includes Carolyn Santora, MS, RN, Chief of Regulatory Affairs, Susan Robbins, MS, RN, CPPS, Assistant Director of Nursing, Grace Propper, MS, RN, CPNP, NNP-BC, Director of Quality Improvement, Lisa Reagan, M.S., Patient Coordinator, are spearheading the initiative.

After just one week, the group had been in contact with the families of those in the ICU, who all agreed to participate in the initiative.

The SBUH team compiled information such as patients’ favorite music, TV shows and additional interests, which is documented in a patient’s “My Story” file, posted both inside and outside the patient’s room. That information is being utilized by caregivers to help create a more meaningful connection with the patients that they are treating.

“We have had nothing but great feedback from both families and patients,” Plank added.

The “My Story” program was created by Carolyn O’Neill, Elder Life Coordinator at Stony Brook Medicine, for patients with Alzheimer’s disease and dementia.

Plank was also a driving force behind the Hospital’s “Face Behind the Mask” – which gives patients the chance to recognize their caregivers by sight. As personal protective equipment covers a significant portion of a healthcare worker’s face, it can be challenging to identify who is behind the mask. Frontline workers at SBUH now don staff ID pictures on their gowns as they visit with and treat patients so patients can see their entire face. The program has been rolled out throughout the Hospital.

  • Iconic Marders, More Than a Nursery

“Marders” is the high essence of a Hamptons Nursery and so much more. It is the epitome of success, situated on 40 acres of prime Bridgehampton real estate. Charlie Marder of 120 Snake Hollow Road, along with his wife Kathleen have built a monument that has been providing their expertise and services to the residents of the Hamptons for about fifty years.

The stories are now folklore. Back in the day, usually wearing his trademark suspenders, Charlie was ever ready to move the largest trees of the Hamptons whether they were to be planted, relocated, or removed. He once boasted to this reporter that he had the record for the widest load moved by the Shelter Island South Ferry. Charlie said he deposited a tree onto the ferry on one side and fetched it off the ferry on the other side, recalling, “The tree was wider than the ferry, sticking out on both sides.” @marderslandscaping

  • Discover Hamptons History with East Hampton Historical Society’s Guided Tours

We all know that September is the best month in the Hamptons. The summer renters have mostly gone (we’ll miss you!). The weather practically demands that you go out for a walk. Maybe you’ve been too busy at the beach or planning activities for the kids, but now that it’s September, take a stroll, stretch your legs, and explore the rich, beautiful history around the Hamptons.

The East Hampton Historical Society is hosting Guided Walking Tours around the Hamptons all September long, so stay a while and listen.

I love walking tours not just because of the guides, who are great storytellers, but the company and conversations sparked with other attendees. We’re the kind of people you’ll see, hands on hips, squinting to read the well-worn plaque on a historical monument. The people who read those brown signs, who pick up and read the local leaflets at a museum or hotel lobby.  @easthampton_histsoc

  • Real Estate with Diane Saatchi: The One That Got Away

When most people think back to the one that got away, they think about relationships.

I think about real estate.

After 35 years of selling real estate, I’ve seen more instances of homebuyers and sellers getting fixated on the one that got away than you’d think. For buyers, it could be that perfect three-bedroom waterfront cottage that was snapped up the day after they viewed it.

In cases like these, the one that got away isn’t just a quiet reminiscence — it’s a shadow that falls over the months and even years to come, making it difficult if not impossible for would-be buyers to find something that measures up to what they had, or thought they had, before.
