South Nassau honors Santino at Carnation Ball

Posted

South Nassau Communities Hospital held its annual Carnation Ball at The Crest Hollow Country Club last week, celebrating it’s continued 85-year commitment to providing the gold standard of care to the more than 700,000 South Shore residents whom they serve.

Town of Hempstead Senior Councilman Anthony J. Santino was the evening’s honoree while Dr. John Ostuni, an internal medicine physician and endocrinologist at SNCH for the past 37 years, was recognized with the Mary Pearson Award.

While members of the Oceanside community came out in large numbers for the fundraising event that benefited the Gertrude & Louis Feil Cancer Center, more than $600,000 was raised from residents from across the South Shore.
