From New York to Jamaica: A healthcare partnership (Part 4)

In this final episode of our four-part series on Northwell's global health efforts in Jamaica, host Sandra Lindsay, RN, sits down with Eric Cioe-Peña, MD, vice president of Northwell's Center for Global Health. Dr. Cioe-Peña shares his personal journey into global health and how he honed Northwell's vast, but scattered efforts around the world into one centralized program that is building sustainable partnerships and making a difference that endures. They also discuss Northwell's unique approach to maximizing the impact of philanthropic giving, harnessing the power of countries with large populations in the U.S., like Guyana and Jamaica, and the future of global health.

This is part four of our series. Listen to the entire series here.
