Stony Brook Southampton Hospital provides first-class healthcare services and “operates the only Emergency Department on the South Fork and treats all patients, 24/7, 365 days of the year,” Ms. Shafiroff said in a statement following the event. “The hospital is essential for all visitors and residents of the East End of Long Island, no one wants to live in a community without access to excellent healthcare.
“That is why, my husband Marty and I are so pleased to be able to support the hospital in every way we can,” she added. “The Summer Party is the hospital’s biggest fundraiser and all proceeds go to the Emergency Department. We hope that everyone who can, buys a table and supports the hospital in this way.”
Limited tables are still available for the hospital’s Summer Party and can be purchased by calling the foundation office at 631-726-8700.
