Thompson Names D’Agostino to Director’s Position

Christina D’Agostino was recently named UR Medicine Thompson Health’s Director of Advanced Practice Providers (APPs).

Christina D'Agostino

A Canandaigua resident, D’Agostino is a family nurse practitioner. She is currently with UR Medicine’s Division of Nephrology and is based mostly at F.F. Thompson Hospital in Canandaigua. Previously, she worked as a nurse practitioner in UR Medicine’s Division of Vascular Surgery, also predominately at Thompson, where she developed and organized the UR Heart and Vascular Teaching Day, helped bring endovascular aortic aneurysm repair to the hospital, and also helped introduce the Vascular Quality Initiative. She is a member of Thompson’s Quality and Safety Committee.

In her new role, D’Agostino will continue as a nurse practitioner in nephrology at Thompson while overseeing advanced practice providers – primarily nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and certified nurse midwives – in the hospital, urgent care locations, and primary care practices. Thompson currently has approximately 80 APPs; Vice President of Patient Care Services/Chief Nursing Officer Hazel Robertshaw said D’Agostino’s new position was created to reflect the increasingly important role APPs play within the health system.

D’Agostino is currently enrolled in the Doctor of Nursing Practice Fellowship Program at the University of Rochester School of Nursing. She received her associate’s in nursing from Monroe Community College and her bachelor’s in nursing from Keuka College. She obtained her master’s in advanced practice nursing from St. John Fisher College in 2012 and was named the Student of the Year by the Nurse Practitioner Association of New York State.

The wines of New York State: a snapshot tasting of interesting bottles

wineanorak.com

Dan Belmont had been filming for the New York Wine and Grape Foundation, and in the process had opened some very interesting bottles of wines from New York State. Generously, he put together a small tasting of these wines for others, like me, with an interest in the region. It encompassed wines from all the different areas, and also covered the hybrid grapes that were the foundation of the region, before Vitis vinifera varieties came along in the 1960s. Read more

Carnation

Just as each month has an assigned birthstone, there are also flowers that are attributed to that month. For January, it is the carnation.

Considered as a symbol of faith, purity, sensitivity, and commemoration, carnations have been around for at least 2,000 years. Also called Gilliflower or Jove’s flower, they were incorporated into beverages to cure sadness. The metaphysics consider it a fire element and associate it with the sun. It was used in spells for protection and to remove negative energy. Read More.

Choosing a Hobby

You have decided to take up a new hobby. It could be a new year’s resolution, or something you have always wanted to do, or just a whim. Here are some steps to look at. Read More.

Nutmeg

Nutmeg is a spice that is a seed from a tree native to the Moluccas, also known as the Spice Islands of Indonesia, the same place we find mace. Now it is found in other tropical areas including India, Sri Lanka, and the island of Grenada. It does well in high humidity and growing zones 10 and 11. Read More.
