It’s a great day to thank a PA! 💙
Every year from October 6-12, we celebrate #NationalPhysicianAssistantWeek. This week recognizes the PA profession and all of its contributions to our nation’s health and safety.
This PA Week is especially significant as it falls during a global #pandemic. Our PAs stepped up in a major way, serving on the front lines of #COVID19.
We are grateful for your passion and commitment to our patients and for ensuring they receive the most exceptional care. We celebrate and appreciate each and every one of you, and thank you for showing us firsthand what #HealthcareHeroes can really do!

Commemorating the Great Chicago Fire of October 8, 1871 - October is recognized as National Fire Prevention Month.
Sunday, October 6 through Saturday, October 12 is also National Fire Prevention Week.
Make sure you and your family are fire safe! 🔥
Modern construction causes buildings to burn hotter and faster. Synthetic products give off highly toxic gasses. If a fire occurs, you only have seconds to get out. What can you do to improve your chances?
Follow along for this week for safety tips from The Burn Center at Saint Barnabas Medical Center:
#TipOfTheDay:
• Put your family's fire safety plan into action. Practice getting out of your house in under two minutes. Make it a neighborhood challenge to see which family exits the quickest!
• Select a safe meeting place; – avoid crossing streets. Once outside, never go back.

Prior to the global outbreak of COVID-19, RWJBarnabas Health partnered with clinical colleagues in Puerto Rico to determine the best approach to caring for those affected by natural disasters and chronic medical conditions.
RWJBarnabas Health’s efforts to establish community resiliency and provide support led them to join forces with the Universidad de Puerto Rico - UPR and the Puerto Rican government. Together, they strived to deliver the best healthcare possible to patients in Puerto Rico and across the world.
The collaboration between Saint Barnabas Medical Center residents and University of Puerto Rico residents allowed them to gain valuable experience by learning about the other’s health care systems and resources.
While their collaborative efforts are currently paused due to the pandemic, medical residents will return to the island and resume their mission as soon as they can.

Did you know November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month?
#LungCancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the United States.
In high-risk people, lung cancer deaths drop by 20% when the cancer is identified early using a low-dose spiral CT scan compared with individuals receiving a chest x-ray. Lung cancer is most curable when diagnosed at an early stage.
That's why it's so important to act now.
The Saint Barnabas Lung Cancer Institute is offering a free low-dose CT screening program for individuals who are at high-risk for developing lung cancer to identify abnormalities earlier. You may qualify for this screening if you are a current or former long-time smoker between the ages of 50 and 74.
Learn more and schedule and appointment, today!

Hey, You! Heard about the new medication?
It’s not a pill and it will improve both your physical and mental performance. Can you guess it?
If you guessed exercise - you got it right!
Exercise is now being labeled the "new medication" and Damaris Ababio, Physical Therapist Assistant at our Barnabas Health Ambulatory Care Center, is here to walk us through it.
"Have you ever wondered why water left in a jar or cup develops an odor after a while but lakes, rivers and streams never do? This is because rivers, lakes and streams flow consistently and never stay still, the same applies to our bodies and brain, if we keep our body moving we will remain healthy from the inside out," Damaris explains.

Here’s your chance to catch a free screening of "The Celiac Project" documentary and speak live, virtually with its filmmaker, Michael Frolichstein!
The Celiac Project is a dynamic, first-of-its-kind documentary about life before and after the diagnosis of #celiac disease.
Filmmaker, Michael Frolichstein, struggled with a series of “mystery ailments” before finally being diagnosed with #celiacdisease at age 40. His journey to meet others who had suffered, as well as get answers from experts, led him to uncover more mysteries within his own family. His documentary explores what we can do individually and as a society to advance the conversation and raise awareness about the disease.

The new Post-COVID CARE Program at Saint Barnabas Medical Center offers individualized care for those experiencing lingering coronavirus symptoms.
The current global #pandemic that we are facing has made leading a healthy lifestyle a challenge for all of us.
The first step towards healthy living is to remember that the goal is not a perfect lifestyle. The goal is to live the healthiest life you can RIGHT NOW.
Making this commitment to yourself is the single most important step towards feeling and looking your best. We are all individuals with unique circumstances and aspirations, so it doesn’t make sense to promote one plan to healthier living.
However, the pillars of healthy living can be a guiding point for everyone.
Jennifer Lau, physical therapist at the Barnabas Health Ambulatory Care Center, explains each one of these pillars and why they're so important in the journey to a healthy lifestyle.

Donations are used in the playroom or at bedside to bring smiles to children while they are in the hospital. They are also given away to patients for birthdays, holidays, or to help them through a difficult procedure or hard day in the hospital.
They wanted to take a moment to thank all of those who donated to SBMC. Thank you for helping us bring smiles to our patients, especially as we continue to battle the #COVID19 pandemic.

Recently, in honor of Bill McKenna, Jr., his family took part in a flag raising to honor his decision to became an organ and tissue donor. Bill’s family described him as a naturally giving person. Already a registered organ donor, his wife said, “He’d be so happy that we were doing this.” They added that Bill would think that being able to give his organs, which included a heart, liver and kidneys, would be the best gift he could give anyone. It’s the family’s hope that by sharing Bill’s story, it will inspire others to discuss the option of organ donation with their loved ones and become registered organ and tissue donors.
Although there have been advances in medical technology, the demand for organ, eye and tissue donation still vastly exceeds the number of donors. You can designate your desire to give the gift of life through the NJ Sharing Network by visiting: www.registerme.org/SaintBarnabas.

Colon cancer is beatable and treatable, but only if caught early. Through proper colon cancer screening, like a colonoscopy, a gastroenterologist can find and remove polyps hidden in the colon before they become cancerous. Sometimes, removing polyps can prevent cancer altogether.
During #ColonCancerAwarenessMonth, Saint Barnabas Medical Center, together with RWJBarnabas Health and Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey - CINJ, unite in the fight against colon cancer by spreading awareness of the importance of colon cancer screening and encouraging our loved ones to get screened.
Adults are urged to talk to their doctor about their risk factors and screening options. A regular examination schedule should begin at age 45, unless your doctor determines you should begin screening at an earlier age.
Mark E. Gilder, MD, an RWJBarnabas Health Medical Group Colorectal Surgeon discusses what you need to know about colon cancer, prevention, treatment and recovery.

Sunday, March 14 marks the start of #DaylightSavings and clocks are turned ahead one hour. Your friends at The Burn Center at Saint Barnabas want to remind you that this is a great time to change the batteries in all smoke or carbon monoxide detectors. Check and clean them; dust causes them to malfunction; and older models have a shelf life and may need to be replaced.
Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors save lives; place one on every level of your home. For added safety, the Burn Team also recommends placing a smoke detector in every bedroom, especially for children. For added protection, close bedroom doors before going to sleep to help keep out smoke and heat.
Carbon monoxide detectors should be placed about 5 feet from the ground, while smoke detectors should be mounted higher on walls or ceilings. Following these simple steps can save yours and your family’s lives. For more information about fire prevention and burn safety, visit our website at www.njburncenter.com

Colon cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the nation, but it is one of only a few cancers that can be prevented. #ColonCancer is beatable and treatable, but only if caught early. Through proper colon cancer screening, like a colonoscopy, a gastroenterologist can find and remove polyps hidden in the colon before they become cancerous. Sometimes, removing polyps can prevent cancer altogether. Individuals of average risk of colorectal cancer should begin regular screening at age 45. Individuals at higher risk should speak to their doctor about getting screened sooner.

Most cancers can be diagnosed and treated at an early stage, but colorectal cancer—the third most common cancer in the U.S.—can actually be prevented. Colorectal cancer is a cancer that starts in the colon or the rectum, which generally take 10 to 15 years to develop into cancer.
People should get a colonoscopy or other screening test recommended by their physician at age 45, or earlier if the patient is in a high-risk group or has possible symptoms.
To see how well you understand your risk, take this quick quiz: http://bit.ly/3rtJKcd
Saint Barnabas Medical Center provides advanced screening, diagnostic and treatment services for a full range of gastrointestinal conditions, including colorectal cancer. To learn more or to make an appointment, call 888.724.7123.

At the height of the pandemic last spring, as emergency rooms responded to a rapidly growing need, more than 1,000 Rutgers medical, nursing and pharmacy school students joined the front lines to battle COVID-19– and, of those, more than half graduated early as part of New Jersey’s race to help.
A year later, four students shared their stories about what it was like to join the fight against a global pandemic. Here are the reflections on the past year from two graduates who are now residents at Saint Barnabas Medical Center.
