Becker’s Names South Nassau Hospital to Its List
of 100 Hospitals with Great Women’s Health Programs

Oceanside, NY… Becker's Hospital Review has named South Nassau Communities Hospital to its 2014
listing of "100 Hospitals with Great Women's Health Programs" in the United States.
South Nassau was selected based on its clinical excellence, quality care and awards for women's health
services. The list was developed through extensive research and a rigorous review with peer organizations.
Becker's Hospital Review is a bimonthly magazine published by ASC Communications located in Chicago, Ill.
The magazine is read by many of the nation’s leading healthcare executives and policy makers.
"We are steadfast in our mission to be the community’s leading provider of high-quality, patientcentered healthcare services,” said Richard J. Murphy, South Nassau's president and CEO. “This honor is a
direct result of our commitment to our mission.”
“South Nassau is at the center of progressive women's health care, offering patients access to the
specialized care and educational services for optimum treatment of women’s health, from high-risk pregnancies
and infertility to breast cancer and reproductive malignancies,” added Alan Garely, MD, chair of obstetrics and
gynecology.
South Nassau offers a comprehensive scope of women's healthcare services, including breast health,
obstetrics and gynecology, women's imaging, and gynecologic oncology.
South Nassau’s Center for New Beginnings team of compassionate, experienced maternity nurses,
obstetricians and high-risk pregnancy specialists deliver approximately 1,800 babies, including nearly 30 sets of
twins, each year. In addition to advanced maternal-fetal medical technologies, the Center features 26 private
family/newborn rooms with first-class hotel like accommodations, spacious labor and delivery rooms, and a 6bed neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Staffed by board-certified neonatologists, the NICU provides the
specialized care and is equipped with the dedicated medical technologies that premature deliveries and
newborns with developmental complications or conditions require. The Center also has a dedicated state-ofthe-art surgical suite for mothers needing a Caesarean section delivery.
The center maintains a “five star” rating for patient safety and quality care from an independent national
hospital and healthcare ratings organization. The rating is based on an in-depth evaluation of the quality of
maternity, obstetrical and gynecological care over a three year period, in the 19 states, which includes New
York, where hospital patient outcomes data is publically available.
Accredited by the American College of Surgeons National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers
(NAPBC), the Center for Breast Health (at South Nassau’s Gertrude & Louis Feil Cancer Center) offers a
comprehensive, multi-disciplinary breast care program, with a full spectrum of clinical and support services,
from screening and diagnosis to treatment and counseling.
Complete Women’s Imaging (CWI), PC, provides the experts and advanced diagnostic technologies
needed to detect breast disease in its earliest stage. A designated Breast Imaging Center of Excellence by the
American College of Radiology, CWI offers an array of state-of-the-art diagnostic technologies, including
digital mammography, high resolution ultrasound and MRI of the breast.
If a tumor or abnormality is detected, the Center for Breast Health offers advanced treatments for breast
cancer and breast health complications and uses targeted surgical techniques that aim to preserve as much of the
healthy breast and surrounding areas as possible, including oncoplastic surgical techniques. Oncoplasty
combines surgical cancer removal with plastic surgery techniques to produce a superior cosmetic end result. For
invasive breast cancer, these procedures may be accompanied by a sentinel lymph node biopsy or axillary
lymph node dissection if needed.
Advanced radiation techniques, including Contura™ multi-channel and Mammosite® single channel
balloon brachytherapy techniques, which utilize a balloon catheter to deliver highly localized radiation to the
lumpectomy bed, are also offered. Recommendations for whole-body or "systemic" treatments, such as
hormonal therapy, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or a combination of two of the three therapies, may follow
either surgical approach.
South Nassau’s Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology offers women access to specialized health
care for optimum treatment of reproductive health conditions, from endometrial biopsies and colposcopies to
gynecologic oncology. At South Nassau's Women's Center for Pelvic Floor Disorders, all-too-common
conditions such as incontinence and constipation, are effectively diagnosed and treated using state-of-the-art
technology administered by highly skilled surgeons. This service is found in only a handful of locations in the
country, and South Nassau is one of them.
South Nassau® Communities Hospital is one of the region’s largest hospitals, with 435 beds, more than
900 physicians and 3,000 employees. Located in Oceanside, NY, the hospital is an acute-care, not-for-profit
teaching hospital that provides state-of-the-art care in cardiac, oncologic, orthopedic, pediatrics, bariatric, pain
management, mental health and emergency services. In addition to its extensive outpatient specialty centers,
South Nassau provides emergency and elective angioplasty and is the only hospital on Long Island with the
Novalis Tx™ and Gamma Knife® radiosurgery technologies. South Nassau is a designated Stroke Center by
the New York State Department of Health and Comprehensive Community Cancer Center by the American
College of Surgeons and is an accredited center of the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Association and Quality
Improvement Program. For more information, visit www.southnassau.org.

Oceanside, NY… Becker's Hospital Review has named South Nassau Communities Hospital to its 2014 listing of "100 Hospitals with Great Women's Health Programs" in the United States. South Nassau was selected based on its clinical excellence, quality care and awards for women's health services. The list was developed through extensive research and a rigorous review with peer organizations. Becker's Hospital Review is a bimonthly magazine published by ASC Communications located in Chicago, Ill. The magazine is read by many of the nation’s leading healthcare executives and policy makers. "We are steadfast in our mission to be the community’s leading provider of high-quality, patientcentered healthcare services,” said Richard J. Murphy, South Nassau's president and CEO. “This honor is a direct result of our commitment to our mission.” “South Nassau is at the center of progressive women's health care, offering patients access to the specialized care and educational services for optimum treatment of women’s health, from high-risk pregnancies and infertility to breast cancer and reproductive malignancies,” added Alan Garely, MD, chair of obstetrics and gynecology. South Nassau offers a comprehensive scope of women's healthcare services, including breast health, obstetrics and gynecology, women's imaging, and gynecologic oncology. South Nassau’s Center for New Beginnings team of compassionate, experienced maternity nurses, obstetricians and high-risk pregnancy specialists deliver approximately 1,800 babies, including nearly 30 sets of twins, each year. In addition to advanced maternal-fetal medical technologies, the Center features 26 private family/newborn rooms with first-class hotel like accommodations, spacious labor and delivery rooms, and a 6bed neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Staffed by board-certified neonatologists, the NICU provides the specialized care and is equipped with the dedicated medical technologies that premature deliveries and
  • 2. newborns with developmental complications or conditions require. The Center also has a dedicated state-ofthe-art surgical suite for mothers needing a Caesarean section delivery. The center maintains a “five star” rating for patient safety and quality care from an independent national hospital and healthcare ratings organization. The rating is based on an in-depth evaluation of the quality of maternity, obstetrical and gynecological care over a three year period, in the 19 states, which includes New York, where hospital patient outcomes data is publically available. Accredited by the American College of Surgeons National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers (NAPBC), the Center for Breast Health (at South Nassau’s Gertrude & Louis Feil Cancer Center) offers a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary breast care program, with a full spectrum of clinical and support services, from screening and diagnosis to treatment and counseling. Complete Women’s Imaging (CWI), PC, provides the experts and advanced diagnostic technologies needed to detect breast disease in its earliest stage. A designated Breast Imaging Center of Excellence by the American College of Radiology, CWI offers an array of state-of-the-art diagnostic technologies, including digital mammography, high resolution ultrasound and MRI of the breast. If a tumor or abnormality is detected, the Center for Breast Health offers advanced treatments for breast cancer and breast health complications and uses targeted surgical techniques that aim to preserve as much of the healthy breast and surrounding areas as possible, including oncoplastic surgical techniques. Oncoplasty combines surgical cancer removal with plastic surgery techniques to produce a superior cosmetic end result. For invasive breast cancer, these procedures may be accompanied by a sentinel lymph node biopsy or axillary lymph node dissection if needed. Advanced radiation techniques, including Contura™ multi-channel and Mammosite® single channel balloon brachytherapy techniques, which utilize a balloon catheter to deliver highly localized radiation to the lumpectomy bed, are also offered. Recommendations for whole-body or "systemic" treatments, such as hormonal therapy, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or a combination of two of the three therapies, may follow either surgical approach. South Nassau’s Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology offers women access to specialized health care for optimum treatment of reproductive health conditions, from endometrial biopsies and colposcopies to gynecologic oncology. At South Nassau's Women's Center for Pelvic Floor Disorders, all-too-common conditions such as incontinence and constipation, are effectively diagnosed and treated using state-of-the-art technology administered by highly skilled surgeons. This service is found in only a handful of locations in the country, and South Nassau is one of them. South Nassau® Communities Hospital is one of the region’s largest hospitals, with 435 beds, more than 900 physicians and 3,000 employees. Located in Oceanside, NY, the hospital is an acute-care, not-for-profit teaching hospital that provides state-of-the-art care in cardiac, oncologic, orthopedic, pediatrics, bariatric, pain management, mental health and emergency services. In addition to its extensive outpatient specialty centers,
