#SolidarityWeek at ZSOM is all about recognizing the invaluable work of our hospital support staff. Med students wrote thank-you notes for housekeepers, custodians, and others who keep our healthcare facilities running smoothly.

GHHS Chapters hosted many wonderful activities
Many chapters took inspiration from Valentine’s Day and merged the themes of love and creativity. Just a few examples: The GHHS Chapter at Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell baked up healthy meals for families at the Ronald McDonald Home of Long Island, University of South Alabama medical students hosted a valentine-making table with sweets to share, medical students at Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth distributed care packages to patients undergoing cancer treatment at Dartmouth Health, and medical students at the University of Puerto Rico School of Medicine visited hospital units for kids, adults and mothers, and collected basic necessities for underserved patients.
