Anthony Caruso received his white coat a few weeks ago. 🥼 We asked him if he could give any advice to the kid in the first photo, what would it be? He replied, "Trust your gut – and always make time for God, family, and friends. You won’t regret it." "My main purpose for pursuing a career in medicine stems from my family’s involvement in the field. I remember hearing about my grandfather’s impact on his community as a family physician when I was a kid. I was mesmerized by the small office and waiting room he created inside his row home, and the fact that he was able to manage his patients’ health, his billing, and finances as a sole practitioner. He had no staff and minimal technology, but he persevered through late hours and house calls, so his patients were properly cared for. Growing up, I saw similar tendencies in how my father practiced gastroenterology, most notably his hard work and discipline. On countless occasions, he sacrificed his sleep and personal life to provide a dire service to this great area of Lower Sussex. However, he still made time to attend all of his children’s school functions and sports tournaments, both locally and regionally. Both he and my grandfather embody the type of person I want to be – an advocate for my patients, and a vital member of the community I serve. I chose Bayhealth for several reasons, but mainly because of the positive experience I had during my two years of clinical rotations in the hospitals and surrounding clinics. My hope was to train where I would eventually practice, in the same area where I grew up. I’m proud to be born and raised in Sussex County, and I believe it’s imperative to give back to the community that formed who I am today."

During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, healthcare professionals saw a tremendous uptick in generosity of community members gifting them everything from discounted services to free lunches. Just as the pandemic waned, so too did donations but for Dawn Hastings and her fellow congregation at House of Praise for All People in Greenwood they wanted to ensure that healthcare professionals continued to feel seen and loved. Thus stemmed a food donation that happens the last Tuesday of every month to the team in the Bayhealth Emergency Department, Sussex Campus. Read more here https://lnkd.in/e6YgvZtw today.
