Since the onset of the pandemic, she has spearheaded the hospital’s COVID response on the frontlines. Her dedication to the well-being of patients, as well as her staff, has demonstrated her true selfless nature. On top of her courageous actions during the pandemic, Fiumara has organized clothing drives among the staff of the hospital, helping patients in need upon their discharge from the hospital. Saladino and the Town of Oyster Bay Board are pleased to have had the opportunity to recognize Lauren Fiumara as a 2021 Woman of Distinction.
