Through the support and advocacy of the Honorable Michael A. L. Balboni, New York State Senator (second from L), Winthrop received a legislative grant of $41,000, used for the purchase of a mobile neonatal transport system. The new unit is used to transfer extremely ill infants from other hospitals to Winthrop’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, where they receive expert,
lifesaving care. L-R: Winthrop’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Daniel P. Walsh; Senator Michael A. L. Balboni; Warren Rosenfeld, MD, Chairman, Department of Pediatrics; Jonathan Davis, MD, Winthrop’s Director of Neonatology and Newborn Medicine; Barbara Slone, RN, PNP, Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Nurse Practitioner; and Sally Breslin, RNC, Nurse Manager, Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
