Stress can affect more than your mood. Over time, chronic stress can impact your heart, sleep, immune system, and overall health.

During Stress Awareness Month, we encourage you to recognize the signs of ongoing stress and take simple steps to protect their well-being. Small changes, like improving sleep routines, staying active, and talking with your provider, can make a meaningful difference.

Advanced lung cancer diagnosis starts with expert teams and advanced technology. 🫁

At St. Joseph’s Health, our pulmonology specialists, like Dr. Roberto Solis, Chief of Pulmonology, and pulmonologists Dr. Jessimar Sanchez and Dr. Haris Kalatoudis are using Ion robotic bronchoscopy to evaluate lung nodules earlier and with greater precision.

This minimally invasive technology allows physicians to reach small or difficult-to-access areas deep within the lungs through the natural airway which supports earlier diagnosis and faster treatment planning.

St. Joseph’s Health is the first health system in Passaic County to offer this technology, bringing advanced cancer diagnostics closer to home for our community.

A stronger community starts with strong partnerships.

St. Joseph’s Health and the City of Paterson have partnered to open a new police substation across from St. Joseph’s University Medical Center and launch our Connect and Protect Program.

This program pairs Paterson Police officers with St. Joseph’s Health crisis counselors to support residents experiencing behavioral health emergencies and connect them with the care they need.

This initiative reflects a shared commitment to strengthening safety, collaboration, and presence in the community.

We are grateful to Mayor, Andre Sayegh, our President & CEO, Dr. Dustin Riccio, our Behavioral Health team and our partners across the City of Paterson and Paterson Police Department for helping to make this possible.

With two new additional Da Vinci 5 robotic surgical systems, we continue to expand access to advanced minimally invasive surgery across many specialties including gynecology, urology, bariatrics, colorectal, cardiothoracic, and general surgery.

With enhanced precision and visualization, robotic-assisted procedures can help reduce pain and support faster recovery.

This National Pet Day, we’re celebrating the powerful connection between pets and better health.

Whether it’s getting outside for a walk, lowering stress after a long day, or simply having a steady companion nearby, pets can support both physical and emotional well-being in meaningful ways. Research continues to show that pet ownership is linked to improved heart health, lower blood pressure, and reduced anxiety.

At St. Joseph’s Health, we see every day how connection supports healing . . . sometimes with a wagging tail. 🐾

We recently opened a new Minimally Invasive and Endoscopic Simulation Center at St. Joseph's University Medical Center.

This dedicated space allows residents and fellows in pulmonology, anesthesia, OB-GYN, surgery, and gastroenterology to strengthen procedural skills using our new advanced endoscopic simulation platform.

By expanding hands-on training opportunities right here on campus, we are helping the next generation of physicians build confidence and expertise before they ever step into the procedure room.

Supported in part through grant funding from the Catholic Humanities Foundation and the collaboration of physician and operational leaders across the organization, this initiative reflects our continued investment in education, innovation, and the future of patient care.
