Good Samaritan Hospital in West Islip, New York is transforming and entering a new era in its over 60-year history. On Wednesday morning, dozens of elected officials, hospital administration, healthcare workers, and community members gathered for the unveiling of the medical facility's new name: Good Samaritan University Hospital. The name change is to reaffirm the hospital's commitment to its residency and fellowship programs, said Patrick O'Shaughnessy, president and CEO of Catholic Health, the hospital network Good Sam is a part of.
