(You can see more about this event in the Main Street WIRE, Roosevelt Island's community newspaper -http://nyc10044.com/wire/2908/wire2908.pdf . ) It will focus on the success of de-institutionalizing health care -- moving it out of hospitals and nursing homes -- that has been accomplished on Roosevelt Island. This has improved quality, increased patient satisfaction and dramatically cut cost.<BR/>If you and any of your colleagues are interested in attending, I'd love to see you there.<BR/>Jack Resnicktherooseveltdoctorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05035079743992990161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5608212.post-73947544469415658562008-10-27T00:23:00.000-04:002008-10-27T00:23:00.000-04:00I am not sure how much easier it truly is for Dr. ...I am not sure how much easier it truly is for Dr. Resnick as he is the only GP on Roosevelt Island with a sizeable base of aging residents.

Amusing.<BR/><BR/>Eric SchwartzmanRI 360https://www.blogger.com/profile/13601131892513304957noreply@blogger.com
