Vets Day In The Teaching Kitchen At Hudson Valley Hospital

From NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital

On November 13, local veterans and their families came together at NewYork-Presbyterian Hudson Valley Hospital's Chef Peter X. Kelly Teaching Kitchen for an event designed to help them cope with the challenges of military experience. Teaching Kitchen Chef Emilie Berner and Sarah Cincotti, U.S. Navy Petty Officer Third Class and a student at the Culinary Institute of America, led the Breaking Bonds Culinary Program, whipping up fall recipes that put health and wellness first.

They were joined by NewYork-Presbyterian Hudson Valley Hospital President Stacey Petrower, Caring for the Hungry and Homeless of Peekskill, Inc. CEO Cynthia Knox and Westchester County Veterans Service Agency Director Ronald Tocci.

“We strive to provide outstanding care to our veterans, who have served us so well," said Stacey Petrower. "By doing so, we are living up to our own NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital credo of respect.”
