On Thursday, December 18, Stony Brook Southampton Hospital joined local EMS members from across the East End to honor the life and service of devoted EMS professional Randy Hoffman with the dedication of the Stony Brook Southampton Emergency Department EMS Room in his name.

Following the dedication, colleagues and friends gathered in Parrish Memorial Hall to share stories and reflect on Randy’s 14 years of service to fire and ambulance organizations throughout the South Fork. An Advanced Emergency Medical Technician, Randy served with the Amagansett Fire Department, East Hampton Village Ambulance Association, Springs Fire Department, Southampton Volunteer Ambulance, Sag Harbor Volunteer Ambulance, Bridgehampton Fire Department, and Montauk Fire Department, responding to thousands of emergencies over the course of his career.

Known for his unwavering commitment to helping others, Randy was recognized by REMSCO for his involvement in CPR saves. Our local first responders play a vital role in the care of our community and are essential partners to our hospital every day. Randy impacted countless lives and his memory lives on as a lasting reminder of his dedication through the plaque now on display in the hospital.

Hey East Enders! ❄️ Snow is headed our way! Let’s do a quick winter safety check with our experts. 🩺

With winter comes snow, ice and a little extra caution. Dr. Darin Wiggins from the Stony Brook Southampton Hospital Emergency Department is here with your daily dose of emergency medicine and an important snow-shoveling PSA. 🚨

Before you head outside, keep these expert snow safety tips in mind:
🧊 Watch for icy conditions when walking or driving to help prevent slips and accidents
🪏 When shoveling, use proper form—lift with your legs, take breaks, and stretch beforehand
🫀 Shoveling can be physically demanding and may put added strain on the heart. If you have a history of cardiac issues, pace yourself and listen to your body

No matter the weather, our Emergency Department teams in Southampton and East Hampton are here 24/7, providing expert care year-round on the South Fork.🏥

Shovel smart, step steady, and stay snow-day safe. ☃️ Save and share these tips with a friend before shoveling tomorrow!
