Northside Receives Grant & Recognition

 

In 2014, 1,703 underinsured women received breast cancer screening and diagnostic services through the Northside Hospital Cancer Institute. Fifteen breast cancers were detected. More cases of breast cancer are diagnosed and treated at the Northside Hospital Cancer Institute than at any other community hospital in the Southeast. Early detection of breast cancer saves the lives of thousands of women each year. However, medically underserved and uninsured women often lack access to care. With the generous support of two Atlanta organizations, Northside is able to continue to provide funding for screening mammograms and other breast diagnostic procedures such as ultrasounds, biopsies and more for women who cannot afford them. Northside recently received a $179,956 grant from the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Greater Atlanta Affiliate, and $39,954.83 from Its The Journey, producer of the Atlanta 2-Day Walk for Breast Cancer.

Forbes has named Northside Hospital to its list of Americas Best Employers in a survey that polled U.S. employees across all industries. No other Georgia hospitals were ranked, and only one in the U.S. the University of Iowa Hospital & Clinics ranked higher than Northside Hospital.Northside Hospital is honored to be included among the esteemed organizations on the Forbes list of Americas Best Employers, said Bob Quattrocchi, president and CEO, Northside Hospital, Inc. More so, we are proud that our employees have placed us in such high regard.
