Greetings, and welcome to MD News Mid Hudson. Thank you for all the positive feedback on the pub- lication's new look and feel for 2016! As many of our readers have noticed, the new MD News brand appearance and idiom have been integrated across all our platforms: our national website and digital editions, our e-newsletter, and local print publications, websites and social media. While you're focused on the field of medicine, we're focused on communicating your brand's expertise and experience in the most sophisticated and advanced formats. Ra ising awa reness of medica l exper tise a nd innovations so that referring physicians are up to date with what's happening in their local market not only shapes the magazine, it helps physicians make informed decisions about the care of their patients. In the spotlight this issue, we present the breadth and depth of neurology services now being o…ered at MidHudson Regional Hospital. The neurology team, known for its expertise in treating a wide variety of disorders of the nervous system, shares with us information about the state-of-the-art medical and surgical treatments it makes available right here in the Hudson Valley region. In a special feature, we check in with the Health Quest Medical Practice Division of Primary Care, which has recently relocated to a new Kingston Primary Care location in Kingston Plaza. The new facility promises to boost both patient convenience and physician collaboration. This issue's special clinical section reviews educational strategies developed by nurses and clinicians in California that reduce rehospitalization rates among heart failure patients while reining in costs. We also examine new research showing that well-matched influenza vaccines significantly reduce morbidity and mortality among nursing home residents. And our Cardiology Update rounds up some eye-opening statistics related to cardiology. Each issue of MD News provides a unique look at what is happening in the local medical field.
