The Corporate Services Center Site Engagement Council, supported by the Office for Health Data, Outcomes, and Engagement Strategy (HDOES) and the Department of Emergency Medicine, welcomed students from Health Opportunities High School for a day of hands-on learning and inspiration as part of this year’s Career Discovery Week. Through engaging conversations and a dynamic panel featuring professionals across our health system, students gained firsthand insight into the many career paths within health care and what it truly means to work in a hospital setting. As part of the experience, students also received letters from our Mount Sinai community, written as part of a letter-writing initiative that shares personal journeys in health care, science, and medicine. These messages of encouragement and hope offered a meaningful reminder that their goals are within reach. We’re proud to support initiatives like Career Discovery Week that help inspire and empower the next generation of health care leaders! #CareerDiscoveryWeek #HealthCareCareers #FutureLeaders #MountSinai

Even if you feel healthy, a yearly wellness exam is an important step in staying that way. Your primary care provider reviews your lifestyle, medical history, and family history, and helps ensure you’re up to date on recommended screenings and vaccinations. It’s also a valuable opportunity to build a relationship with a provider who understands your health and can help catch potential issues early. Taking time for your annual exam today can help protect your health for years to come. Learn more via the link in our bio. #Health #Wellness

Lindsay MacOdrum and her family have a lot to be thankful for this holiday season—a new chance at life after an unexpected health scare almost turned deadly during a family trip to New York City. And it could have happened to virtually anyone. The 41-year-old mother and elementary school teacher was visiting from Canada last June with her family. During a bike ride in Central Park, she went into cardiac arrest and collapsed in front of her kids. Her teenage stepson immediately began CPR (he just learned it a week before for a job as a camp counselor). She was rushed to Mount Sinai Morningside. Emergency responders thought her chances of survival were slim. Her parents would later fly in to say their goodbyes. But thanks to the quick actions of paramedics and doctors in the Emergency Department, and then a medical procedure that discovered an undetected heart condition, she is now back home and her heart is functioning normally.
