We are excited to announce that Northridge Hospital’s signature event is upon us! Our Steppin’ Out, “Celebration of Hope” Annual Gala, will be held on Saturday October 14, 2023 at the Four Seasons Hotel, Westlake Village.
Each year, we work hard to raise much-needed funds for life-saving equipment and services for our community hospital. With over 65,000 patients visiting our Emergency & Trauma Department every year, it is crucial we provide the most up to date and lifesaving equipment when it is most needed!
This year we are proud to announce the Steppin' Out 2023 Award Recipients:
"Grace Leland Physician Appreciation" Award will be received by: MARK AMICO, MD
Mark Amico, MD, MPH, FACP serves as the Medical Director for Dignity Health Hospital Medicine program at Northridge Hospital Medical Center and is an Associate Clinical Professor of Medicine at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. As a dynamic member of the Family Medicine residency faculty for over 30 years, Dr. Amico enjoys teaching and mentoring residents. The Family Medicine residents have recognized his passion and commitment in guiding them by honoring him with the Excellence in Teaching award three separate times.
Dr. Amico chairs the hospital Utilization Management Committee and is active on several hospital medical staff committees. He is valued for his dedicated research interests in access to medical care, patient safety, and resident physician involvement in the provision of medical care.
"Celebration of Hope" Award will be received by: THE UNSUNG HEROES IN EMERGENCY MEDICINE
Unsung heroes often go unrecognized in their rush to care for our most injured and ill patients in the Emergency and Trauma Departments. Yet, their every action is critical to the health and safety of our patients—whether they take vital signs, transport patients, or discharge them. The Celebration of Hope Award honors these heroes who exemplify self-sacrifice, compassion and humankindness. We thank them for bringing light to our patients and showing them that there is HOPE in their recovery.
