ECPC supports new community health program

ECPC is a proud supporter of the inaugural Starling Physicians Neighborhood Engagement Support Team (NEST), a new program dedicated to preventive health screenings, health literacy and cancer support for underserved communities in Connecticut.

Several members of the ECPC pathology team attended this year’s Summit Health Cares Gala & Auction, which dedicated all event proceeds to NEST programming, including:

  • Access to health care screenings
  • Education for neighbors in need
  • Comfort for patients and families dealing with a cancer diagnosis and treatment

The gala raised money through ticket sales, donations, a live and silent auction and raffle tickets. The event was attended by Drs. Christina Luffman, Aneta Rafalowski and Christopher Wallace.

The NEST initiative is closely aligned with ECPC’s vision for how hospitals, health systems and providers can improve health outcomes in the communities in which they serve. Making an impact in the communities where our patients live is a core part of our practice’s mission and values.
