CEO Looks Back on 2022, Ahead to 2023 in Video Message
to join UR Medicine Thompson Health President/CEO Michael F. Stapleton, Jr., FACHE as he recounts the extraordinary events of the past year.

Stapleton touches on how far Thompson has come and where it’s headed with regards to caring for those with COVID and seasonal illnesses; the increase in healthcare usage in the Emergency Department, urgent care, and other departments; and the hospital’s difficulty discharging patients due to a lack of long-term care beds in the region. He also discusses the successful fundraising Gala at Lincoln Hill Farms, exciting new health system projects under construction onsite and throughout the area, as well as the many honors Thompson claimed from the Best of the Finger Lakes Awards.

Happy New Year to all our readers! Let us hope Mother Nature is good to us this year. We experienced some really cold weather just around Christmas, after a warm early December. This confused the dormant grape vines. We would like the temperatures to gradually cool down, allowing the vines to acclimate to the cold over a period of time. It was like the extreme cold weather switch got turned on overnight! We will see how this plays out through the rest of the winter and next spring.
