The hospital is a presenting sponsor at the Relay for Life in Mahopac on June 4-5 and will have a team with Education Coordinator Sarena Chisick and Oncology Nurse Navigator Dianne Toscano as co-captains.
Putnam Hospital Center is also a gold sponsor of the Relay for Life in Patterson on June 11 and will also have a Patterson Relay team with John Mahoney, administrative secretary of the Behavioral Health unit, serving as captain.
Chisick, Toscano and Mahoney said they hope many of the employees and their families join the hospital’s teams to support this vital endeavor.
“Cancer affects everyone,” Chisick said. “We want to raise as much money as possible to put an end to this disease.”
“The relays are a fun way to get together and form a united front against this dreaded disease that impacts all of us,” Mahoney said.
Toscano also wants to remind residents that “The American Cancer Society saves lives! They fund research, cancer education and prevention and provide services for our cancer patients and community.”
Residents are invited to join forces with Putnam Hospital Center on one or both teams to come one step closer to a cancer-free world. To join the Mahopac team visit the Putnam Hospital Center Relay page.
