Everybody, our entire team is privileged to serve you and what you do every day to keep us all safe is just amazing and words cannot adequately thank you and your team.\u201d Dr. McKenzie commented that \u201cIt is not only our great privilege to care of police officers who become our patients but to also care for patients that are victims of crime and we frequently interact with the police department here in providing care for those patients.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Jamaica Hospital Trauma Recognition In the News:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"NY1  Trauma clip\" width=\"584\" height=\"438\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GdbX_6BWV2Q?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ShareLast month, the NYPD Patrol Borough South recognized the Jamaica Hospital Medical Center Trauma Department for its many years of service to the community and to the NYPD.\u00a0 A plaque of appreciation was presented to the hospital by Assistant Chief &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/nypd-recognizes-jamaica-hospital-medical-center-trauma-service\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4999","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4999","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4999"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4999\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5012,"href":"https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4999\/revisions\/5012"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4999"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4999"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medisyshealth.org\/newsletter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4999"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
