The Parker Jewish Institute is pleased to announce that its President and CEO Michael N. Rosenblut has been honored with the New York Chapter of the American College of Health Care Administrators – Distinguished Service Award.
Mr. Rosenblut was recognized for his leadership throughout the pandemic and beyond, inspiring team members to safely deliver superior health care, with compassion and dedication to older adults. He has spearheaded innovations at Parker, including its award-winning Family Call Center, Drive-Through COVID-19 Vaccination and Testing Clinics, and, earlier, Medical House Calls, and a first-of-its-kind Indian Culture Unit. Recently, Mr. Rosenblut expanded access to care with the PRINE Health Vascular Center, which in addition to the the Queens Long Island Renal Institute, is conveniently located on Parker’s first-floor lobby.
Mr. Rosenblut serves as a beacon of positivity, an ever-present quality demonstrated even in the height of the pandemic. It’s not unusual to see Mr. Rosenblut making the rounds at Parker, visible and approachable, speaking with residents and patients, families and team members. While gathering information, he conveys an assurance and confidence that is seamless for this hands-on administrator. Mr. Rosenblut’s vital optimism helps Parker’s health-care staff thrive even in the most unprecedented times. His optimism has fueled further innovation, including Parker’s Infection Control Patrol, an interdisciplinary program fostering Parker’s already strident infection-prevention measures.
Under Mr. Rosenblut’s leadership, Parker is a resilient organization that continues to find ways to keep residents and patients engaged, incorporating diversity, equity and inclusion. And with an eye towards the future, Mr. Rosenblut is helping to ensure Parker’s fiscal viability, so the Institute continues delivering accessible health care to the most vulnerable population, while bringing careers with growth opportunities to Long Island and New York City.
“I am so proud to be honored by the New York Chapter of the American College of Health Care Administrators, with the Distinguished Service Award. This award very much reminds me of my father, Alan’s, distinguished health care career. I thank the Chapter for its important work, and for team members at Parker, for their dedication and service to older adults/families in the community,” Mr. Rosenblut said.
