August 1, 2024 – Philanthropist and financier Donald Sussman, the founder and chief investment officer of Paloma Partners, has made a $1 million donation to Holy Cross Health to modernize the building that will become the new Holy Cross Family Health Center.
“Access to high-quality and equitable healthcare is essential. The services provided at Holy Cross Health contribute significantly to the overall well-being of the community, and I am heartened by the vision of hospital leadership and its exceptional team of medical professionals in expanding access, increasing innovation, and improving lives of all they serve,” said Sussman, who has a residence in Fort Lauderdale.
To recognize the donation, the drop-off and pick-up area at the Holy Cross Health Emergency Department has been named the S. Donald Sussman Emergency Drive Thru Entrance. The new Emergency Department signage was unveiled in a special ceremony culminating with a dedication and blessing by Holy Cross Health Mission Leader Mary Carter Waren.

Marcus Neuroscience Institute, part of Baptist Health, Now Offers High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound for Patients with Essential Tremor
August 2 2024– Marcus Neuroscience Institute, part of Baptist Health South Florida, at Boca Raton Regional Hospital, is now treating patients with high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for those suffering from essential tremor.
The technology uses concentrated ultrasound waves to heat the brain tissue and block signals causing the tremor. Under MRI guidance, sound waves are precisely focused on the small spot in the brain considered to be responsible for causing the tremors. There is no incision or general anesthesia used during the treatment.
“We are pleased to be able to offer HIFU treatment at Marcus Neuroscience Institute and help those dealing with essential tremor, which may have impacted their routines and daily activities,” said Timothy Miller, M.D., neurosurgeon and director of functional neurosurgery at Marcus Neuroscience Institute. “By having the ability to now target and treat specific areas of the brain with precision, we can improve the quality of life for so many in our community, allowing them to regain control and confidence in their lives.”

Cleveland Clinic-led Research Identifies Priority Zones That May Help Improve Colorectal Cancer Screening Among Hispanic/Latino Individuals
July 31 ,2024 – Cleveland Clinic-led research has identified geographic areas in the United States where strategic efforts to promote colorectal cancer screening could help reduce healthcare gaps affecting Hispanic/Latino communities.
The study, published in the American Journal of Public Health, marks a first step toward conducting larger neighborhood-level studies addressing disparities in colorectal cancer screening.
The Hispanic/Latino population has the lowest colorectal cancer screening rate among U.S. racial and ethnic groups as defined by the U.S. Census Bureau. Lower screening rates often lead to later diagnoses, advanced cancer stages and poorer treatment outcomes.
The researchers identified “hot spots” across the country where larger percentages of Hispanic/Latino populations are associated with lower colorectal cancer screening rates. Based on this information, they developed an interactive web map illustrating their findings. This is the first study to conduct a nationwide geographic analysis to identify local priority zones with the goal to increase colorectal cancer screening in those Hispanic/Latino communities.

Holy Cross Health is Nationally Recognized for its Commitment to Providing High-Quality Heart Failure Care
The American Heart Association presents Get With The Guidelines® – Heart Failure Gold Plus award for proven dedication to ensuring all heart failure patients have access to best practices and life-saving care
July 31, 2024 – Holy Cross Health has received the American Heart Association’s Get With The Guidelines® – Heart Failure Gold Plus quality achievement award for its commitment to improving outcomes for patients with heart failure, meaning reduced readmissions and more healthy days at home.
About 6 million U.S. adults are living with heart failure (HF), a number that is expected to increase to more than eight million by 2030.[1] Despite the name, HF doesn’t mean that the heart has stopped working – it means the heart is having a hard time pumping blood and oxygen throughout the body. While there’s no cure for HF, patients can live a quality life by working with their health care team to create and stick with a plan that may include medication, symptom monitoring and lifestyle changes.

AI boosts the power of EEGs, enabling neurologists to quickly, precisely pinpoint signs of dementia
July 31 2024 – ROCHESTER, Minn. — Mayo Clinic scientists are using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to analyze electroencephalogram (EEG) tests more quickly and precisely, enabling neurologists to find early signs of dementia among data that typically go unexamined.
The century-old EEG, during which a dozen or more electrodes are stuck to the scalp to monitor brain activity, is often used to detect epilepsy. Its results are interpreted by neurologists and other experts trained to spot patterns among the test’s squiggly waves.
In new research published in Brain Communications, scientists at the Mayo Clinic Neurology AI Program (NAIP) demonstrate how AI can not only speed up analysis, but also alert experts reviewing the test results to abnormal patterns too subtle for humans to detect. The technology shows the potential to one day help doctors distinguish among causes of cognitive problems, such as Alzheimer’s disease and Lewy body dementia.

Classes are from 10 to 11:30 a.m. on Aug. 6, Aug. 13, Aug. 17, Aug. 20 and Aug. 27 at HealthPark Medical Center, 9981 S. HealthPark Dr. in Fort Myers.

The World Health Organization (WHO) and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommend exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of an infant’s life with continued breastfeeding for two years or more. While most families initiate breastfeeding, two-thirds of families who initiate breastfeeding don’t achieve the recommended breastfeeding duration or intensity. Lack of access to breastfeeding support is one of the primary barriers to achieving these recommendations.
