North Shore LIJ Southside Hospital’s free “Ask the Doctor? Caring For The Caregiver” community awareness event will be held on June 7th at the Bay Shore YMCA Boulton Center from 6-9PM.
This important event is a question and answer forum regarding issues that affect those caring for a child, spouse or parent in need. Including the health and wellness of the caregivers.
The forum will be attended by four Southside Hospital doctors, NSLIJ region care nursing, NSLIJ hospice care, Family Service League, the Great South Bay YMCA, a financial planner, as well as other resources for caregivers.
The doors will open at 6PM with an hour set aside for refreshments and resources on our second floor expo. The forum will begin at 7PM with chief of cardiology Dr. Jean Cacciabaudo, program director of family medicine Dr. Tochi Iroku-Malize, director of surgery Dr. Scott Wodicka and emergency physician Dr. Brian Blaustein. After short clinical lectures from the physicians, the audience will be asked to fill out question cards to be answered by the panel and special guests.
