he entity Pearl Street Development LLC is proposing to construct a 12-story apartment building at 28 Pearl St. in Port Chester. The building would contain 194 units: 74 studios; 70 one-bedroom units; and 50 two-bedroom units. The building would have 124 off-street parking spaces accessed from Pearl Street. Port Chester’s Planning Commission is expected to hear more about the proposal when it meets July 25, including changes made by the developer as a result of comments received from the village so far.

According to Attorney Anthony B. Gioffre III of the White Plainsbased law firm Cuddy & Feder, the site consists of two lots, 28 and 34 Pearl St., with a total area of 0.45 acres located along the western side of Pearl Street. The land is zoned in the city’s CD-6 District, which promotes high-density and tall buildings.

Gioffre told the Planning Commission that 28 Pearl St. currently is developed with a single-story vehicle repair shop with at-grade exterior parking along the Pearl Street frontage. He stated that 34 Pearl St. currently is developed with a single-family residence.

“Both structures will be demolished as part of the proposed redevelopment,” Gioffre said. He added that the proposed development “will support the reactivation of the streetscape through the pedestrian improvements along Pearl

he Danbury Fair mall will soon add a Target to its lineup, but malls have always been about more than just the convenience of retail options. Entertainment is a key part of what draws shoppers to malls, particularly ones with historic connections to fair grounds and antique carousels at their heart. Knowing this, mall owner Macerich has partnered with Round1 Bowling & Entertainment to bring one of the Japanese company’s signature entertainment complexes to Fairfield County.

In addition to bowling, Round1 locations feature darts, billiards, an arcade, ping pong, karaoke and additional options for entertainment alongside food and drink.

“At Danbury, we have smaller forms of entertainment, but this will be a much larger offering,” said Eric Bunyan, senior vice president of leasing for the east region for Macerich. “They cater to families, they do corporate events and also birthday parties. We feel their

offerings will resonate well in the Danbury market with our customers.”

“Round1 is an entertainment operator out of Japan and we’ve done a few deals with them,” Bunyan added. “We recently signed two new leases with them: one in Arizona and one in Danbury. Entertainment at our center helps round out the overall offering, and that’s our company initiative. We think of Danbury as a very strong, super regional talent center.”

Bunyan described Round1 as both a great fit and a necessary adaptation.

“At one time we had five anchors that were traditional department stores,” he continued. “Today, we’re down to two traditional department stores, so what we are seeing is that we’ve got strong demand. We’re fortunate to select best-in-class operators like Round1 and diversify our offering.”

The transition from an old anchor tenant to an entertainment complex will not pose much of a challenge for the mall in terms of construction, Bunyan added, FCBJ

noting the work is about on-par with what transforming any store into another typically entails — some plumbing and wiring will be required but there will be both short term construction work and new jobs brought to Danbury Fair with Round1’s arrival.

The location will also be joined by a new Target location, which will provide a similar benefit, attracting more visitors, which will benefit the mall as a whole as well as Danbury itself.

“We are a major employer,” said Maura Ruby, general manager of the mall. “We have a lot of people that work at the center, so adding another layer of employees alongside the Longhorn Steak House and Shake Shack we just recently opened is exciting. I envision that we’re going to have a lot of applicants coming in for the entertainment use. This is a great job for young kids coming and going to college or looking for seasonal work, and we constantly have tradespeople in to manage and maintain the infrastructure of our stores. It’s going to be a real great economic uptick.”

Ruby also emphasized that

the demand for entertainment is high, and Round1 will fit well within the mall’s existing ecosystem.

“This really speaks to the strength of the real estate,” Bunyan added. “It’s just an extremely strong endorsement for the strength of the center and the future of the center. Think of how the market was two years ago and it’s remarkable the amount of progress we have made in that stretch of time. We’re really proud of it.”

“People are looking to get back out to our retailers and seeing and feeling their products.

We’re feeling really positive about everything and are even planning on bringing programming for the mall back,” Bunyan said. “We’re excited not only to have just managed to find back fills but solid solutions that may even be dramatic improvements over prior occupants.”

While unable to go into further details about pending deals and transactions, Bunyan said that further announcements about new tenants should be expected in the near future.

Jersey contractor says St. Regis Residences still owes money on lux condo construction

BY BILL HELTZEL Bheltzel@westfairinc.com

A

subcontractor that worked on the St. Regis Residences claims that the developer and general contractor have refused to pay $848,513 for extra work performed on the posh Rye condominium project.

Valex Enterprises Inc. sued Opra III LLC, the developer, and Hudson Meridian Construction Group LLC, the general contractor, June 29 in Westchester Supreme Court. Opra is an affiliate of Alfred Weissman Real Estate, Harrison.

St. Regis Residences is a 92-unit condominium that features luxury services and is aimed at older homebuyers.

Valex, of Marlboro, New Jersey, is a drywall and carpentry contractor that was hired to build a facade.

At some point, Hudson, of White Plains, fired other subcontractors for defective work, according to the complaint, and asked Valex to fix the defects and assume responsibility for the remainder of the work.

Valex worked on the project from Dec. 1, 2020, according to a mechanic’s lien, to March 24, 2022. The agreed-upon price for labor and materials was more than $3.2 million.

The new responsibilities were made part of the original subcontract, the complaint states, rather than as a new contract. Valex submitted bi-weekly labor and material records to Hudson, and the submittals that were approved were forwarded to Opra for payment.

But payments, Valex alleges, “were substantially delayed and ultimately ceased altogether.”

Valex says it notified Hudson that unless payments resumed, it would no longer be able to continue the work.

Opra allegedly responded by asking Valex to expedite the job by working on weekends and paying overtime, and by promising to pay Valex promptly.

But once again, the complaint states, payments were not made. When Valex asked why, Hudson allegedly responded that Opra had refused to pay Hudson, so Hudson would not pay Valex.

Valex charges Opra and Hudson with breach of contract and unjust enrichment. It also accuses Hudson of diverting funds that were to be held in trust for the benefit of subcontractors.

It is demanding an accounting of project records, foreclosure on the

mechanic’s lien and payment of at least $848,513.

Opra attorney Richard C. Schoenstein denied the accusations but otherwise declined to comment on the complaint. Hudson did not respond to an email request for comment.

Solar system for White Plains completed

BY PETER KATZ Pkatz@westfairinc.com

onstruction has been completed on what’s described as the largest municipal solar energy setup in Westchester County. The system is spread over nine city-owned sites in White Plains. It is designed to produce 8,100 megawatt hours of electricity each year. A megawatt hour is one million watts of electricity produced for a onehour period. One million watts is enough to light more than 9,000 standard 100 watt bulbs in a 110-volt system.

The system was built by Distributed Solar Development (DSD) based in Schenectady, which the city selected after having sent out a Request for Proposals (RFP) to about 100 solar contractors. The RFP was prepared by the city’s Department of Public Works (DPW) with the cooperation of the New York Power Authority (NYPA), which has its administrative offices in White Plains.

The city’s DPW commissioner at the time, Rick Hope, described DSD as being a “spin-off” of GE Solar.

The city says that the amount of electricity to be generated is enough to power more than 700 homes each year.

The nine solar projects include a mix of canopy, rooftop and ground mount installations at four parking garages, the Ebersole Ice Rink, Gedney Way Recycling Yard, Gillie Park, the city Water Department and the Brockway Place DPW site.

When the project was getting started, White Plains Mayor Tom Roach told the Business Journals that the city will be receiving about $1 million a year in revenue from leasing the spaces occupied by the solar sites and will have no costs associated with them.

Upon completion of the build-out, Roach said, “We are in a climate crisis and are obligated to recognize the urgency and take deliberate action to build a sustainable, resilient planet. The city of White Plains will continue to serve as a sustainability leader by investing in and implementing renewable energy initiatives that will meaningfully reduce greenhouse gas emissions.”

Justin E. Driscoll, interim president and CEO of NYPA, said, “The New York Power Authority is pleased to have played a key role in helping the city of White Plains create an expansive, unique portfolio of solar and storage systems that offer renewable energy to reduce the region’s carbon footprint. As the

Hopefully, other municipalities will follow suit and help our state further advance its bold climate action goals.”

David Eisenbud, senior organization director at DSD, had pointed out that two-thirds of the White Plains sites consist of garage top and surface parking canopy systems.

“This is a specialty application that DSD has pioneered,” Eisenbud said. “This will help transform the city. DSD doubled the expected capacity on city parking garages because of our propriety solar canopy designs.”

He said the canopies over parking WCBJ

areas will do more than just provide a platform for solar panels; they will protect people and vehicles from rain and snow while enhancing the downtown experience for visitors.

After completion of the project, Eisenbud said, “This unique portfolio positions the city as a leader in solar adoption and shows other communities what is possible when it comes to clean energy.”

Some of the solar installations incorporated infrastructure improvements, such as a new roof for the Ebersole Ice Rink and a storage area for the water department. The canopies across some of the sites feature a proprietary integrated water management system to handle flowing water from rain and snow melt.

The solar field at the Gedney Recycling Facility features the first floating foundation canopy mounted on a landfill cap.

Additionally, two canopy systems at the site incorporate sidewalls to store and protect city equipment. In construction, a floating foundation does not use footings. It is a slab with edges that go just below the frost line. This type of foundation is able to move as temperatures cause the soil to compact and expand.

City officials and DSD had said they expect the solar system will not only reduce dependence on fossil fuels for electricity generation but also produce environmental benefits equivalent to removing about 1,300 cars from the road or planting 101,000 new trees in White Plains.

Yonkers contractor sentenced to prison for tax evasion

BY BILL HELTZEL Bheltzel@westfairinc.com

A

Yonkers contractor has been sentenced to four months in federal prison for evading taxes on income of $1.5 million that he concealed from the IRS for several years.

U.S. District Judge Nelson S. Román also ordered Mario G. Nunes to pay $352,328 in restitution to the government for the taxes he should have paid from 2014 to 2019.

Nunes had pleaded guilty to tax evasion and six counts of filing false tax returns. He was sentenced on May 4 but the judgment was not entered on the public docket until July 5.

Nunes, 60, was born in Portugal and emigrated to the United States in 1990, according to court records.

He settled in Yonkers and established himself as a self-employed masonry and concrete contractor around 1992 or 1993. In 2018, he became a naturalized citizen.

The IRS originally assessed $85,692 for unpaid taxes from 2006 to 2017, based on the income he reported. But there was

more. The government discovered that he had also concealed income from his business, booking more than $1.8 million from 2012 to 2016 but reporting less than $237,000.

Nunes employed several schemes to conceal income. He asked customers to pay him in cash, for example, or to pay vendors directly for supplies. He paid for personal expenses from his business accounts and he deposited business checks into his personal account.

In 2018, he called the IRS and claimed he had not worked since an accident in 2015, according to the criminal complaint, and that he was surviving on borrowed money from family and friends Non-mandatory federal sentencing guidelines called for 18 to 24 months in prison. The federal probation office recommended six months.

Nunes’ attorney, Paul D’Emilia, recommended no jail time, three years of probation, a fine and community service.

“There is no excuse for Mr. Nunes’ conduct,” D’Emilia stated in a letter to Román, “but we believe the court will see that his actions in this instance are incongruent

with the rest of his life.”

He depicted Nunes as a good man who “always strived to do the right thing” and who is humbled and embarrassed by his failures. He was raised in poverty in Portugal, never married, lives in a modest one-bedroom apartment and is focused on his community.

He created Fundación Galaxia Inc. in the Dominican Republic to provide toys, food and medicine to children and the elderly.

A prison sentence would be unreasonable, D’Emilia wrote, “considering Mr. Nunes’ life history, long record of good works, stellar character and the need to be present in the lives of his community and for the ongoing survival of his business.”

Nunes said he never intended to avoid taxes, in a letter to the judge, but he found himself “struggling at the end of every project to make ends meet. I now realize that it was a combination of underpricing and miss-management that left me broke at the end of these endeavors.”

Assistant federal prosecutors Jeffrey C. Coffman and James F. McMahon rec-

ommended a sentence within the 18-to-24 month guidelines to “send a message to would-be tax cheats that a meaningful jail term is the likely consequence of such criminal conduct.”

Minimal jail time, they stated in a letter to Román, “would be perceived by the public as a slap on the wrist and would fail to provide adequate deterrence to others who would flout the tax laws.”

Nunes had taken the position that had he filed tax returns correctly, including all expenses, he would have owed little or no taxes.

The prosecutors scoffed at the assertion. Nunes had received more than $1.8 million in documented receipts but also received cash receipts that the government was unable to identify. He paid his employees in cash but failed to pay their employment taxes.

Nunes’ tax evasion “was not a one-time mistake or fleeting lapse of judgment,” Coffman and McMahon stated. “Rather, time and time again over the course of over five years, Nunes made a conscious and deliberate choice to defraud the U.S. government.”

Port Chester— Street including street plantings/trees along the project frontage, sidewalk lighting and outdoor seating. The primary pedestrian access will be located on Pearl Street.”

Gioffre said that the building complies with Port Chester’s zoning that allows a 12-story building on the site and that the roof penthouse will be used to house the building’s emergency generator and does not contain any habitable space.

“The generator will be screened and louvered for ventilation. The screening and louvers will be installed with appropriate sound baffling to eliminate sound transmission to neighboring sites,” Gioffre said. There would be a green roof system utilizing approximately 22.4% of the total roof area.

The project would use high-energy efficiency windows and doors, high “R value”

insulation components, energy efficient electric heat pump heating and cooling and energy efficient appliances.

A traffic study found that the project is anticipated to generate 34 vehicles during the morning peak hour and 33 vehicles during the afternoon peak hour.

On Saturdays, there would be 47 peak hour trips.

The traffic study said, “Access will be provided via one driveway providing full movement entering and exiting the parking garage. It is noted that the current property has multiple access points along Pearl Street.

Therefore, the proposed project will improve access control along this portion of Pearl Street. In addition, the proposed project will provide an off-street loading area internal to the garage that will accommodate mov-

ing trucks and sprinter van parcel delivery.

The existing use currently has no accommodation for loading on-site and currently receives frequent deliveries (multiple per day) of auto parts, which are predominantly double-parked on Pearl Street.”

The developer said that a study indicated the impact on local public schools would be limited to an estimated 25 children.

Of the project’s 194 apartments, 20 would be in the affordable housing category. They would include eight studio apartments, seven one-bedroom apartments, and five two-bedroom apartments. Port Chester requires that 10% of the units be offered as affordable.

Gioffre said that the proposed development “will provide affordable housing units, high-density and transit-oriented development, which will enhance the nearby down-

town area and support the redevelopment of the Port Chester Metro-North Train Station area.”

A geotechnical report on the site indicated that rock removal would “likely be difficult, requiring blasting, hammering or other mechanical means to remove the rock to achieve the proposed basement foundation grade.” The report said that if blasting is required, selection of blasting materials and spacing of holes drilled in the rock for placement of blasting materials, “should be selected by an experienced blasting professional to minimize ground vibration, fly rock, air blast and fragmentation.”

The developer had executed a voluntary Brownfield cleanup agreement with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation Brownfield Cleanup Program.

How You Move— assessments and action plans for improving motion health, tailored to a specific client.

The process begins when an interested individual first signs up online for an orientation session and provides his or her weight and height. Upon visiting the lab at Chelsea Piers, clients’ movements are then assessed by the team of experts and mobility specialists.

“We have mobility specialists here who will work with helping the individual to understand what this data means for them, so they walk away with an individualized and clear roadmap to getting them to where they want to be in terms of their motion health,” said Polly de Mille, exercise physiologist and registered nurse.

The team at the lab stratifies this information according to the HSS Performance Pyramid, a mobility chart split into three tiers with the “functional wellness” tier at the bottom (tier 1), the “performance readiness” tier in the middle (tier 2) and the “specific performance readiness” tier at the top (tier 3).

“What we have found, historically is that even the highest-level athletes, if they’re getting repeatedly injured, it’s often something at the foundational level that is impacting their tier 3 sports-specific movement,” said Jaime Edelstein, assistant vice president, HSS Rehabilitation and Performance.

The functional wellness tier is composed of five categories: strength, balance and posture, mobility and symmetry, body composition/nutrition and cardiovascular fitness. The performance readiness tier’s categories are power, agility and acceleration/deceleration, and the specific performance readiness tier is composed only of the sports-specific skill category.

The initial orientation session is spent asking a client to perform certain exercises and movements that are appropriate for one’s age and level of activity, in addition to

“When we get a score, we can put them in the appropriate wellness levels,” said Max Castrogaleas, exercise physiologist and HYML coordinator, “so that the individual is not doing something that’s either too hard or too easy, so we’re actually meeting them where they’re currently at with their fitness.”

The full sessions that follow is when clients interact with the lab’s equipment. The technology allows the mobility specialists to further measure clients’ performance by capturing and quantifying their power and mobility.

WCBJ

Clients are asked to perform motions on the Proteus machine by applying resistance using the machine’s bar attachment and with the guidance of a mobility specialist, which results in “3D” measurements.

They are also instructed to perform certain motions and exercises such as squats and vertical jumps within the boundaries of the DARI Motion platform, which has a camera system to capture motion and create a digital skeletal wireframe that is superimposed and synchronized to a client’s body and viewable on the display in front.

The data collected from these systems are put into a motion wellness report, which is uploaded to a server and clients may later view this information on their desktop com-

puters at the end of a session. The report includes movement assessments, which give a score, up to 100%, to six of the performance categories outlined by the mobility pyramid: strength, balance and posture, mobility and symmetry, power, agility and acceleration/ deceleration.

Scores are derived from comparisons to other individuals whose performances have been measured, based on age and sex.

Also included in the report are journal notes by the mobility specialists, as well as messages and videos that guide clients toward improvement, which can be helpful if clients have received a score in a certain performance category deemed to be an “area of opportunity.”

Armed with this information and backed by years of scientific research and the latest technologies, it is believed that clients from all walks of life may benefit from 30-minute sessions at HYML. “This is a customized experience and the foundation and the backing for it is in data,” said Edelstein. “There are no (fitness) applications out there at this time, which can customize down to the detail of assessing an individual’s mobility, health, taking that information and then providing them with customized feedback to help support areas of opportunity.”

And while the lab provides a unique experience to consumers, its team noted that it is not meant to be a replacement for any fitness programs or applications, but rather a way to guide individuals to approach fitness goals and perform exercises in an efficient manner, without injury or excessive strain.

“This is really to set you up for success in whatever it is that you’re doing. You have the information you need to know where your areas of opportunity are,” Edelstein said.

BRIEFS Darien fintech plans to add 91 jobs Oasis Pro Markets, a Darien-based fintech, has announced an expansion project in Connecticut that will generate 91 new jobs over the next four years.

The company, which currently employs 15 people, is a subsidiary of Oasis Pro Inc. and operates an alternative trading system that enables subscribers to trade digital securities and make payment for those digital securities in digital or fiat currencies. The Connecticut Department of Economic and Community Development is providing a grant in arrears up to $1,067,602 for the expansion project, contingent on the company creating and retaining 91 new full-time jobs within the state.

“Connecticut is an attractive company location with its top-quality educated workforce, universities, quality of life and a focus on building strong infrastructure for growth — especially in the fintech area,” Pat LaVecchia, CEO and founder of Oasis Pro Markets, said. “As a longtime resident, it is exciting to see Connecticut supporting our company’s growth and its commitment to providing a strong foundation for growing companies like ours.”

Olivet University’s campus in Dutchess County is closed by the NYSED

The New York State Education Department (NYSED) has shut down the Dutchess County campus of Olivet University (OU), citing financial mismanagement and “a well-established pattern of noncompliance with laws, rules and regulations.”

According to a Christianity Today report, the state cited more than 50 lawsuits filed against Olivet over the past decade and 20 tax liens. Olivet University is based in California and operated a campus in the town of Dover since 2012.

“As of July 1, 2022, Olivet’s permission to operate is expired and the institution is no longer authorized to operate credit-bearing courses or programs in New York state,” said NYSED Deputy Commissioner William P. Murphy in a letter to the school’s leadership.

“Olivet should implement the institution’s teach-out plan for the students in New York programs and make arrangements for the maintenance of student records, including academic transcripts.”

Proposed Wegmans location in Norwalk faces scrutiny

BY JUSTIN MCGOWN jmcgown@westfairinc.com

T

he potential arrival of the Wegmans grocery store chain in Norwalk was not warmly embraced by several city residents who gave public comments at a meeting of the Planning and Zoning Commission on the evening of July 7.

The proposed store, which would also feature a two-story parking garage, is planned for the current site of MBI’s Norwalk offices. The submitted plans call for the demolition of the consumer product company’s current offices to make way for the grocery store itself while the current asphalt parking lot will be partially replaced by the garage and some redesigned surface parking.

At the moment, the lot has entrances from both Keeler and Richards Avenues, and both will receive some upgrades, but a more radical change is planned for adjacent properties. Wegmans hopes to acquire the parcels beneath the nearby Lumber Liquidators, the Wells Fargo bank on Connecticut Avenue and the site of DOCS Urgent Care next door to the Bowlero bowling alley. By purchasing these properties, Wegmans hopes to reach Connecticut Avenue with two access points to the Route 1 corridor.

The plan calls for Wells Fargo to stay but calls for the demolition of the Lumber Liquidators and replacement of the DOCS building with a new retail plaza. The result would see the Wegmans have four points of access, including one at the traffic light, which also serves the Walmart location.

Three residents called in during the public comment period, all of them stating opposition to the current plan.

Judy Philips said she was a “huge Wegmans fan” and would love to see the company come to Norwalk but expressed concerns about the impact the new store would have on local traffic.

“The site that is proposed is adding to an already existing traffic nightmare,” she said, voicing her concern about the methodology of the traffic study that the commission had called for while pointing out all traffic studies conducted in the past year would necessarily include some distortion stemming from the pandemic.

Philips was also concerned about the impact of increased traffic on the local streets, including trucks supplying the store, and expressed dismay that the meeting was timed during a popular vacation week.

Ben Hanpeter expressed opposition to the entire project in its current form.

“It is my opinion that the city does not need more grocery stores of this size in this location along the Route 1 Corridor,” Hanpeter said. “It’s no secret that Route 1 is the city’s dumping ground for all manner of big box stores and in doing so the city has failed to achieve a diversity of uses and is not accessible by any means other than by car.”

After Hanpeter noted other parts of the city can also accommodate grocery stores, he observed the close proximity of ShopRite, Stop & Shop, Stew Leonard’s, Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods along the Route 1 Corridor either in Norwalk or just over the border in neighboring towns.

He also described the proposed site as an impediment to the city’s efforts to become more sustainable and walkable.

“Without additional housing and other WCBJ

uses, this is not an appropriate location for a grocery store,” he said Hanpeter’s recommendation was followed by Diane Lauricella, who also expressed doubts.

“Although I know that Wegmans are very attractive, are very oriented towards their customers, let’s face it: this is just another big box on Connecticut Avenue,” she said.

Lauricella also brought up prior statements made by some of the members to emphasize mixed-use development and asked for information on what percentage of Wegmans shoppers are expected to be Norwalk residents versus out-of-towners, evoking the city’s reputation as the “hole in the doughnut” surrounded by wealth but still poor.

Lauricella, raising some of the same points as Hanpeter, additionally criticized the commission for what she perceived as

a soft stance toward Wegmans pushback to suggestions of placing solar panels on the building roof and garage.

William Hennessy Jr., the attorney representing Wegmans, disputed much of what was said during the public comment.

He called on other experts who had presented aspects of the plan prior to the public comment.

Project Manager for Wegmans Steve Leaty in particular noted that while he wouldn’t weigh in on the operations of other companies, he believed that the store would have a positive effect even in an area with an already high concentration of grocery stores.

“What we see is that when Wegmans comes into the market, it’s a win-win for everybody,” he said. “Anybody that exists there today has to up their game, their experience needs to be better than Wegmans in order to compete.”

Rockland doctor blames medical practice bankruptcy on Fidelis and Refuah

BY BILL HELTZEL Bheltzel@westfairinc.com

A

Rockland doctor who has filed for bankruptcy protection claims that Fidelis Care health insurance and Refuah Health Center sabotaged his medical practice.

QHC Upstate Medical P.C., of Spring Valley, filed for Chapter 11 reorganization on July 5, declaring $366,049 in assets and $2,289,588 in liabilities.

QHC was forced into bankruptcy, owner Seth Kurtz said in an affidavit filed in U.S. Bankruptcy Court, White Plains, “by Refuah

in a concerted action with Fidelis” to block health care reimbursements to the medical practice.

Fidelis and Refuah did not respond to emails requesting responses to the allegations.

QHC had previously sued Fidelis for $2 million, claiming that the insurer had illegally cancelled its service agreement. A Rockland County Supreme Court judge ruled against the medical practice last year and awarded $1.5 million to Fidelis.

Kurtz has appealed that decision.

Kurtz, a pediatrician, formed QHC in 2009 to provide medical services primarily

to people from New York City who summered in Sullivan and Ulster counties.

The practice grew to three clinics, with the main location in Monsey and offices in Brooklyn and Staten Island. The Monsey office has booked more than 17,000 patient visits in less than four years.

In 2020, QHC grossed more than $9 million, according to a bankruptcy schedule, and revenues nearly doubled last year to

about $17.9 million.

QHC had signed a standard health services agreement with Fidelis in 2011, and the deal was automatically renewed yearly.

Fidelis, founded in 1993 to serve poor and medically underserved populations, specializes in government programs such as Medicare, Medicaid and Child Health Plus.

About 80% of QHC’s patients, according to Kurtz, were covered by the insurer.

In 2019, Fidelis sent QHC an audit letter demanding $1.9 million for nearly five years of alleged improper billings. Seventeen days later, Fidelis declared that the service agreement would not be renewed.

Kurtz says Fidelis did not respond to QHC’s request for documents to support the demand for $1.9 million.

He says losing the Fidelis coverage forced QHC to cease operations at various sites last year.

The audit letter was part of a “coordinated, retributive and retaliatory illegal act,” Kurtz alleged, “initiated by Refuah Health Center Inc.,” a competitor.

Refuah was founded in New Square, Rockland County, in the mid-1980s to provide comprehensive health care to all patients, its website states, “regardless of their ability to pay.” It has clinics in Spring Valley and South Fallsburg, as well as mobile units, and has about 280,000 patient encounters annually.

“It became increasingly apparent that Fidelis’ ultimate goal was not to work with the debtor (QHC) anymore in Rockland County,” Kurtz stated, “unless the terms and conditions of our relationship were substantially modified.”

He did not disclose the modified terms.

He also claimed that QHC has recently learned that the audit was part of a boycott scheme and that it has discovered new claims against Fidelis and Refuah. He provided no details.

Kurtz said QHC is investigating whether to pursue litigation. It might file claims against Refuah for unfair trade practices, antitrust, collusion and conspiracy, according to a bankruptcy schedule, and claims against Fidelis for breach of contract, and bad faith and unfair dealing.

QHC is represented by Manhattan attorneys Jonathan S. Pasternak and Robert L. Rattet.

Stamford cemetery with troubled past sued by employee

BY JUSTIN MCGOWN jmcgown@westfairinc.com

A

lawsuit filed in the Stamford Judicial District alleging breach of contract, spoilation of evidence and wrongful termination stemming from complaints to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is the latest issue to disturb the peace of a Stamford cemetery.

Charles Hair, an employee at Fairfield Memorial Park since 2011, alleged in his complaint that he was wrongfully terminated from his position in 2018 after he informed the board he had filed an OSHA complaint owing to unsafe working conditions. According to Hair, attempts were then made to destroy his employee contract and security cameras were removed from the cemetery offices to facilitate that destruction. In an amended claim, he also alleged that his overtime pay was withheld.

Counsel for both the employee and the cemetery met with Judge William Clark virtually on June 20 over a motion for summary judgment.

Fairfield Memorial Park was founded in 1936 by Benjamin Pitman as a nonsectarian resting place, but since the early 1990s it has had a troubled history. In 1994, then-state Attorney General Richard Blumenthal won control of the park from owners who were accused of burying bodies in the wrong graves and selling the same plots to multiple buyers, along with other problems.

The state appointed an overseer and a board was formed, but complaints from grave owners persisted, culminating in the 2018 resignation of the entire board.

Gerald Bosak Jr., the co-owner and funeral director of the Bosak Funeral Home, was named acting chairperson of a temporary board.

According to Hair’s complaint, he signed an employee contract in 2016, which he alleged contained a provision that he could only be terminated from the position for just cause and after a review process on the part of the board. Hair said that in 2018 he informed the board, that he had filed an OSHA complaint due to unsafe working conditions, which elicited a demand that he turn over all documents related to the

complaint to the board followed by his suspension.

Current OSHA records for Connecticut do not list any complaints filed against either Fairfield Memorial Park or Colonial Cemeteries Inc., the nonprofit controlled by the board that runs the facility. However, the defendants admit that Hair informed them that he had made a complaint to OSHA while disputing the existence of any unsafe working conditions.

Hair alleged that while he was suspended, Bosak entered the cemetery offices and removed security cameras. According to Hair, Bosak did so in order to access the cemetery office safe and destroy Hair’s contract without being recorded.

Bosak, citing the pending litigation, said that he had no comment. Melissa Fahey, the current chairwoman of the board, also declined to comment on the ongoing lawsuit.

The defense team asserted that Hair has been unable to provide proof of most of his allegations. It allowed that there may have been discrepancies in payment, but as Hair was responsible for reporting work hours to the accounting firm, such issues would FCBJ

stem from his own failures to accurately report the information.

Also at issue are four sworn affidavits regarding the signing of the alleged employment contract.

Hair has provided sworn testimony that Thomas Hickey, the vice chairman of the board of directors for the cemetery at the time, signed the document after he wrote a draft of it, while Hickey has submitted a sworn affidavit saying he did not.

Mairi Hair, who is both the sexton of the cemetery and Charles’ grandmother, has submitted an affidavit stating she was present for the signing, supporting her grandson’s version of events, albeit with differing details.

Bosak has also submitted an affidavit, denying Hair’s accusation that he also signed the document, citing that he was not yet on the board at the time the document was allegedly signed.

Judge Clark weighed these points in the virtual meeting and inquired into the nature of Hair’s role in the cemetery’s payroll system. He told both parties that he would review the case and inform them when he reached a decision.

HUDSON VALLEY New focus on Hudson Valley behavioral and mental health

BY PETER KATZ Pkatz@westfairinc.com

T

he Westchester Medical Center Health Network, more commonly known as WMCHealth, which has its headquarters in Valhalla, is teaming up with Dutchess County in a new initiative to help cope with mental health issues in the Hudson Valley.

According to a report by Mid-Hudson Valley Community Profiles, as of 2019 there had been a decline in the rate of mental health clinic visits in the region since 2001. While there were six visits per 100,000 residents in 2001, by 2019 that number had fallen slightly to 5.8 visits per 100,000 residents. Dutchess County had a 30% decline, the largest in the region and substantially higher than the overall 4% decline. In Orange County, there were 4.8 mental health clinic visits per 100,000 residents while Putnam had 4.9 visits per 100,000.

According to Alvernia University in Reading, Pennsylvania, “Behavioral health is a blanket term that includes mental health. Behavioral health looks at how behaviors impact someone’s health — physical and mental. These issues can include depression, anxiety, diabetes management, weight loss, smoking cessation and drinking or drug use problems.”

WMCHealth operates MidHudson Regional Hospital in Poughkeepsie and it’s there that a new Behavioral Health Center of Excellence is being established. Dutchess County Executive Marc Molinaro explained that Dutchess County will provide $3 million in funding that will partially go toward permanently adding 20 inpatient behavioral health beds at MidHudson Regional, increasing the total number of available mental health beds at this facility to 60. It also will fund updating shared community spaces and nursing stations in these areas, in order to enhance the healing environment while prioritizing a safe environment for patients and workforce members.

“Dutchess County has long prioritized the importance of mental health, and the forthcoming Behavioral Health Center of Excellence at MidHudson Regional Hospital represents Dutchess County’s latest commitment … to ensure those living with mental health issues receive the compassionate care they deserve, close to home,” Molinaro said. “This new center,

In addition to enhancing physical facilities, the partnership between WMCHealth and Dutchess County has an overall goal of establishing a continuum of care between private and public resources that will help ensure the best possible behavioral health patient outWCBJ

comes.

Staff from the county’s Department of Behavioral and Community Health will be assigned to the new Behavioral Health Center. The idea is to help facilitate a seamless transition for discharged patients to continue their recovery by utilizing the extensive behavioral health programs available throughout the county for residents with mental health or substance use issues, using every available resource to help support patients as they recover. Clinical staff will undergo training regarding the role that trauma has likely played in the lives of individuals in need of mental health services.

According to Michael D. Israel, president and CEO of WMCHealth, “Creating a Center of Excellence to address the community’s behavioral health needs will benefit Dutchess County tremendously and complement our work throughout the Hudson Valley to deliver quality behavioral health care while expanding and enhancing these vital services in the communities we serve.”

In Ulster County, just across the Hudson River from Dutchess, WMCHealth announced that 20 inpatient mental health beds will be located in the expanded HealthAlliance Hospital on Mary’s Avenue in Kingston. WMCHealth is the

largest provider of behavioral health services in the Hudson Valley with a total of 205 inpatient behavioral health beds.

The plan to create the Behavioral Health Center of Excellence at MidHudson Regional Hospital requires approval by the New York State Department of Health and New York State Office of Mental Health. With that in hand, WMCHealth can proceed to finalize design and planning for the renovations. Construction on the project will be phased in order to avoid temporarily needing to take a significant number of inpatient behavioral health beds offline for an extended period. The first phase of the project is expected to be completed late next year.

WMCHealth has approximately 1,700 beds in nine hospitals on seven campuses spanning 6,200 square miles of the Hudson Valley. It employs more than 13,000 people and has nearly 3,000 attending physicians. There are Level I (adult and pediatric), Level II and Level III trauma centers, the region’s only acute care children’s hospital, an academic medical center, several community hospitals, dozens of specialized institutes and centers, stroke centers, skilled nursing, assisted living facilities, home-care services and one of the largest mental health systems in New York state.

HUDSON VALLEY Zinc8 considering new battery factory in Ulster

BY PETER KATZ Pkatz@westfairinc.com

A

company that is based in Vancouver, British Columbia, and has developed battery technology based on the use of the metal zinc in combination with air is considering setting up a manufacturing plant in Kingston in Ulster County. Zinc8 Energy Solutions believes there will be a large market for its modular Energy Storage System that uses zinc-air battery technology to store and deliver from 20,000 watts to 50 million watts of electricity.

Zinc8 has been considering setting up shop at the former TechCity site in Kingston, now known as iPark 87 and being redeveloped by Greenwich-based National Resources. For more than 30 years, the campus had been a major site for IBM where approximately 7,000 employees were located.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has come out in support of Zinc8 building a manufacturing plant at the iPark 87 site. Schumer’s support is against the background of the federal government’s Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act that includes $6 billion for federal incentives meant to expand capabilities of battery research and development in the U.S. The funding would help bolster domestic battery production, and shore up the American supply chain in an industry that has relied on foreign sources.

“Zinc8’s interest in expanding hundreds of new jobs into the Hudson Valley ... would be a win-win-win,” Schumer said. “A once-contaminated asbestos dumping ground can be revitalized and once again be the beating heart of Ulster County’s economy, all while powering a cleaner, brighter future, fighting climate change and creating hundreds of good-paying jobs.”

Schumer had a telephone conversation with Zinc8’s CEO, Ron MacDonald.

Schumer said he told MacDonald, “I stand ready to help their potential expansion in the Hudson Valley in any way, including fighting to secure the historic federal battery research and development incentives I passed in the Bipartisan Infrastructure and Jobs law. Zinc8’s investment in the Hudson Valley would further power New York’s leadership as a global battery manufacturing hub.”

According to MacDonald, “Zinc8 is

TechCity at 300 Enterprise Drive in Kingston. Satellite photo via Google Maps. evaluating potential manufacturing sites in the Northeastern U.S. and has been very impressed with the locations and related facilities in New York. Having the support of Senator Schumer for our company and technology will weigh heavily on our decisions on where to locate our first major production facility.”

Schumer said that batteries and energy storage are integral to everyday life, helping to power everything from mobile phones to electric vehicles, but unfortunately, much of the manufacturing of this critical technology has been taking place in foreign countries, leaving the U.S. vulnerable to supply chain disruptions that can raise costs for products and projects that use batteries and jeopardize U.S. jobs and national security.

Zinc8 envisions that its zinc-air batteries

could be called upon to release stored-up electricity when renewable sources such as wind and solar aren’t producing at peak capacity. The company also believes its batteries would be backup sources replacing diesel generators. It points out that its technology differs from other types of batteries in that zinc-air batteries have no fire or explosion risks.

Ulster County Executive Pat Ryan praised Schumer for being “with us at the forefront of revitalizing the former IBM campus, returning it to its rightful place as the beating heart of our reenergized and revamped Ulster County economy.” Ryan gave Schumer credit for helping get the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to strike an agreement with National Resources on the removal of asbestos piles from the former IBM site.

FCBJ

“We are excited about the opportunity to bring over 500 clean energy jobs to our area and expect thousands more to come as a result of our work,” Ryan said.

Mike Oates, president and CEO of the Hudson Valley Economic Development Corporation, also issued a statement praising Schumer and expressing a hope that Zinc8 actually does build its factory at the iPark 87 site.

In March, Zinc8 in partnership with Digital Energy Corp. announced an agreement to install a zinc-air battery technology at Fresh Meadows Community Apartments in Queens, a 32-building housing development owned by Cammeby Realty Corp.

The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority awarded about $500,000 to help finance the $2 million project.

SPECIAL REPORT BANKING

KeyBank survey finds business optimism

Joe McPheter of KeyBank.

BY PETER KATZ Pkatz@westfairinc.com

A

survey of 400 business owners and executives of businesses doing volumes in the $10 million to $2 billion range reveals that while they are confident in the futures of their own companies, they are not so confident in the future of the U.S. economy. The KeyBank survey was conducted during the second quarter of 2022 and the results were similar to what KeyBank found in a survey taken during the first quarter of the year.

About 78% of the respondents felt the outlook for their businesses was excellent or very good, with another 17% saying the outlook was good. For the U.S. economy in general, 55% said the outlook was excellent or very good with another 22% saying the outlook was good. Those businesspeople who had doubts about the future of the

14

JULY 18, 2022

FCBJ

economy said that inflation, the cost of raw materials, the potential for recession, continuing impacts of Covid-19 and Russia’s war against Ukraine were their biggest concerns.

Many of the respondents indicated that their businesses are in a growth mode with 51% expecting to expand their use of technology and automation in the next six months. Additional employees were planned to be added by 48% of the companies, with 45% expecting to introduce new products into the marketplace. Only 5% of the respondents said their businesses would not be investing or expanding in the next six months.

Among those companies planning to add employees, 31% anticipated difficulty in hiring, largely due to a lack of qualified candidates.

Joe McPheter, a senior vice president at KeyBank, told the Business Journals that WCBJ

what he has been picking up from businesses in the Hudson Valley is generally consistent with what the nationwide survey reported. McPheter is based in Tarrytown and is involved with corporate and commercial banking in the New York Metro area, including the Hudson Valley.

“What we are hearing more and more and I’m hearing from our meetings is companies feel good about themselves,” McPheter said. “They actually feel strong, the companies are well-positioned.

Surprisingly, I think part of that is from Covid, that microeconomic event that happened and made people step up and shore up their balance sheets a little bit.”

McPheter said the bank saw the use of lines of credit decrease for awhile because businesses were flush with cash and many had received federal money from the Paycheck Protection Program.

“Companies in the Hudson Valley are

feeling good about themselves and without a doubt across the board there are concerns about what the future may hold,” McPheter said. “I don’t think companies are concerned about filling their gas tanks because of the cost because at the end of the day, inflation has brought up the cost of everything. I think the concerns around inflation are effects on customers … their spending habits.”

McPheter said that they are starting to see consumers backtracking a bit and starting to spend a little bit less. He said there are concerns about Russia and Ukraine and added that supply chain disruption still remains an issue. He said that businesses with which he has spoken worry about where the point is when demand decreases while costs remain high.

McPheter said that businesses are paying closer attention to their financials on a monthly basis than they might have in the

past and are questioning whether there could be a recession and, if so, when it might happen.

“I have not heard anyone say that we’re in a recession. I don’t think the numbers would support that. But I do hear them with the concerns of the ‘R’ word,” McPheter said.

McPheter said that the periodic surveys of business conducted by KeyBank are useful within the bank.

“I read them and it definitely is very

valuable from a business standpoint. We’re getting the feedback of the people that are in the market, that are driving this revenue, that we are supporting,” McPheter said.

“Getting their feedback helps us look at our analytics and get a pulse of the sentiment, which is really important.”

McPheter pointed out that business in the Hudson Valley is not highly concentrated in one sector and, therefore, the overall economy is less likely to feel sharp pains if one sector of the national economy takes a

severe hit.

“We have a decent amount of construction, we have a decent amount of distribution. Retail and consumer goods are prolific. A lot of the areas especially within Westchester have a lot of disposable income,” McPheter said. “I think we’re pretty well balanced unlike, maybe, regions of Vermont or Maine where timber is a large part of what they do.”

He said that companies are investing in technology not only to take advantage of

FCBJ

what it can do but also use it where possible to ease the effects of personnel shortages and expand individual productivity.

“We’re talking with a company … that’s looking at a $20 million project to put in automated robots to pull the boxes from the shelves because they can’t get enough employees and the cost of labor continues to rise, so automation I think for most companies is a true focus,” McPheter said.

“Four out of five companies that we speak to have implemented new systems that are technology-based or are in the process of doing so.”

McPheter said that one important takeaway from the latest KeyBank business survey is that business leaders are focused on their businesses more than outside factors that they can’t directly control, such as the national economy and politics.

“The best CEOs that we deal with know what they can control and they focus on that,” McPheter said “They’re driving value, growing market share, investing in their companies, trying to grow their staffs.

They’re cognizant of what is going on in politics but I don’t think it’s slowing them down or stopping them.”

WJCS (Westchester Jewish Community Services), the largest provider of outpatient licensed community-based mental health services in Westchester County, was awarded a $2 million federal grant to provide trauma services. The five-year grant was awarded by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) and will allow the agency to expand services at the WJCS Trager Lemp Center for Treating Trauma and Promoting Resilience. The grant will allow the agency to deepen its focus on providing trauma services to young people, ages 8 to 21, and their families with a particular focus on Black, indigenous and people of color (BIPOC) and LGBTQ+ young people who have been

impacted by Covid-19. The grant also allows for more support to be offered to those with intensive mental health needs resulting from multiple traumas.

“The rate of trauma among young people is higher than it has ever been. This grant will greatly assist efforts to help those struggling now and will contribute to our efforts to help our community heal,” said WJCS CEO Seth Diamond.

“Trauma, if untreated, will negatively influence every aspect of the lives of our young people, and those effects will ripple throughout our entire community,” said Liane Nelson, Ph.D., director of the WJCS Trager Lemp Center and founding co-chair of the Westchester County Task Force on Trauma.

NEW WJCS BOARD PRESIDENT

Matthew Hummel

Bruce M. Freyer, recently elected president of the Westchester Jewish Community Services (WJCS) Board of Directors, became involved with WJCS in 1997 and has held a variety of board positions.

“Bruce has been invaluable in furthering the mission of WJCS in countless ways,” said WJCS CEO Seth Diamond. “He has been integral in developing strategic initiatives, a passionate and effective advocate for vulnerable children at Westchester County budget hearings and an active partner, supporting all aspects of the agency’s work.”

Freyer’s dedication to social service and making the world a better place for all people extends to work overseas. He and his wife Dana founded the Global Partnership for Afghanistan, a nonprofit organiza-

tion devoted to working with rural Afghans to create viable and sustainable farm businesses that alleviate poverty, build sustainable livelihoods and promote economic development. Ordained as a rabbi from the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion in Cincinnati, Freyer had a distinguished career as a pulpit rabbi, military chaplain in Vietna and chaplain at Manhattanville College. His military service earned him the Army Commendation Medal and Bronze Star. Freyer left the active rabbinate in 1977 and began his second professional career in the business world. He earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from Case Western Reserve University and a bachelor’s degree and Master of Arts degree in Hebrew Letters from the Hebrew Union College Jewish Institute of Religion.

Shaping Digital Transformation

How Sacred Heart’s MBA is leading the charge Apple, Amazon, Uber.

Thirty years ago, no one could have predicted the massive impact these companies would have on the way we communicate, buy goods, get from place to place and live our lives. But digital transformation is rapidly upending companies and entire industries, forcing us to question historical ways of doing and delivering business.

Some experts project that more than 60% of the skills that individuals learn today will be outdated by 2030 for this everchanging economy.

“Today it is all about being innovative and resourceful while growing core competencies and building sustainable practices on an ongoing basis,” said Nicole C. Jackson, Ph.D., director of the MBA program at Sacred Heart University (SHU). “No longer can students just depend upon a set of traditional skills as a guarantee of future success. Rather they will need to build skills continuously and grow newer mindsets for this newer economy while also maintaining firm grounding of who they are and what value they aim to deliver.”

How did it happen? Exciting platforms, such as artificial intelligence (AI) and Big Data, the decentralization of finance and blockchain technology and the advent of predictive analytics are converging to create a brave new world of possibilities.

And, just as generations past had to adapt to the changeover from the horse-and-buggy to the car and the typewriter to the word processor, college students must keep pace.

The trick is to put aside fear of the unknown and forge ahead to build a future of abundance and capabilities, Jackson said.

“If we can skill people the right way, they should have even more opportunity,” she said.

It’s a challenge SHU has taken to heart in the last few years. SHU’s Jack Welch College of Business & Technology (WCBT) stands at the forefront of defining emerging career trajectories within the reality of digital transformation.

WCBT’s MBA program with an innovation management concentration teaches the application of technology in business rather than presenting technology as a separate function, providing an understanding of core business models and forms of marketing and management. It also presents a crucial understanding as to how digital transformation technologies such as AI and Big Data will require novel ways to approach traditional business problems.

In addition, SHU offers a wealth of exciting spaces and resources for exploration. In 2019, WCBT moved into the renovated East Building of the former GE headquarters, which now forms SHU’s expansive West Campus.

West Campus is home to TechnologyEnhanced Active Learning Environment (TEAL) classrooms, collaborative student workspaces, special case study rooms for Socratic-method teaching and Echo-360 technology to facilitate interaction with online students here and abroad.

SHU iHub, the first co-working space in a university environment powered

by Verizon, is an 8,000-square-foot collaborative workspace where teams of entrepreneurs from the region and students can work on start-up ideas. The flexible space is supported by a studentled concierge service, hot desks, offices and conference rooms and a full-time community manager to make sure everything runs smoothly. In addition, students have access to classrooms equipped with the latest in augmented, virtual and mixed reality components and technology.

Building on SHU’s emphasis on critical thinking and judgment, students are challenged through problem-based learning to create and innovate. Pairing new technology with the rich grounding of the Catholic Intellectual Tradition encourages students to collaborate, recognize their own ethical underpinnings and immerse themselves in the creative, continuous learning model that digital transformation fosters.

A meaningful capstone project pairs students with local agencies through the SHU-based Center for Nonprofit Organizations. Bringing their up-to-date acumen to a nonprofit’s real-world challenges helps deepen their understanding of the relationships between business and the community.

It also hones the breadth and depth of their skills for a future in both nonprofit and for-profit entities large and small.

“Today’s business leaders need to be both fluid and fluent. It’s not just ‘I know accounting’ or ‘I know marketing,’” Jackson said. “There needs to be a commitment to making a positive impact, to innovation and empathy and ethics. With all the technology, we always put humans at the center of it.”

PAIER COLLeGE As you look out the window of your classroom, the ferry is gliding across the crystal blue waters of Long Island Sound on its way to Port Jeff. A few birds are making another pass over Seaside Park, as people are just starting games on the soccer and baseball fields.

Within walking distance, beachgoers dot the golden sand as the afternoon sun heats up. In front of you, your instructor guides you through today’s theories and techniques before taking you outside for the rest of class to apply what you just learned. You plan to head to the dining hall with some new friends before walking along the shore with your break between classes.

This is no daydream. This is just the sort of environment Paier College students get to enjoy on a daily basis – at least until the snow comes.

Founded in 1946, Paier College recently

completed its relocation and transition to Bridgeport ushering in a new era of training commercial artists and designers, refreshed for the 21st century learner. This transition not only grew the physical footprint of the College, it also saw Paier add new programs to its curriculum offerings; the school now offers 13 academic programs in visual and fine art, design, software and coding, marketing and communications. Students can earn certificates and undergraduate degrees in these various fields and in early 2022, Paier announced the addition of the graduate level programs; an M.P.S. in Design Management and an M.A. in Global Media and Communication Studies.

Serving for years as Connecticut’s only independent art college, Paier College has a 75-year legacy of training artists with career-oriented education. Its mission

Paier College, located in Bridgeport, CT on Long Island Sound, offers undergraduate and graduate degrees in design, marketing, fine arts, communications, and more.

focuses on inspiring the creative minds of tomorrow and fostering intellectual curiosity and innovation. Graduates are prepared to solve real-world problems, be stewards of civic responsibility and

engage with others through collaborative experience.

For a prospective student seeking to find a balance of value, affordability, small class size, personalized education, opportunity

and rewarding experiences, then nationally accredited Paier College should be on the list for residents, commuters and nontraditional learners alike. Here’s what one student, Nikah, had to say about her experience: “For anyone considering Paier, I love it here because I’ve accomplished so much. I have amazing teachers who guide me along the way. My work has been recognized with awards and accolades. It’s a place where it really feels like the staff care about the students. As a result, I’ve had the opportunity to shine at Paier. Now I’m about to graduate and I have the job of a lifetime lined up, working alongside one of the best interior designers in New York. There were times when my world felt upside down, but at Paier, I’ve learned to challenge myself. My teachers never gave up on me and I truly have them to thank for everything. I’m proud to be at Paier.”

Inspiring the Next Generation of Health-Care Professionals

ADVANCE YOUR CAREER WITH A

GRADUATE

DEGREE FROM SOUTHERN

Thirty-one New Haven area high school students attended Southern’s second annual Summer Nursing Symposium in the newly opened College of Health and Human Services building this June. The five-day oncampus learning experience presented an opportunity for Southern faculty to mentor local students of underrepresented backgrounds into health-care fields.

Along with gaining hands-on experience with state-of-the-art equipment, participant Riley Baez, a rising senior at the Engineering and Science University Magnet School, appreciated the opportunity to work alongside professionals in the field.

“Hanging around the professors all day, you really see how they genuinely want to get to know us. They see us as individual people and want to help us pursue our careers.”

Participants learned about different nursing pathways, were introduced to common supplies used within the profession and practiced using them, participated in simulations, and even ventured off-campus to shadow a nurse at Yale-New Haven Hospital. The program also provided participants with in-depth exposure to all parts of the medical field, allowing them to selectively hone-in on areas of interest with their future careers in mind.

According to Dr. Kristen Borgognone, assistant professor of nursing, hosting the symposium in the new Health and Human Services building enhanced participants’ ability to fully immerse themselves in health-care simulations.

“They’ve had the opportunity to really experience the role of the nurse in many different hands-on activities. They can ask questions. First, we show them, then they actually can turn around and teach each other and that’s really good when you see SCSU, page 10

Wondering if there’s room for graduate school in your busy life?

Southern’s School of Graduate and Professional Studies provides you with affordable market-driven programs delivered in flexible formats that will fit your schedule and help to advance your career.

that happen.”

Many of the activities were held in the fourth floor’s nursing simulation labs and the first floor’s 120-seat lecture hall.

Molly Pellino, a rising junior at Wilbur Cross High School, described the experience as “adapting with the generation.”

“This building gives you a lot of exposure to nursing, (and the) many different things you can try and use,” said Pellino.

Thanks to an expansive partnership with Yale New Haven Health, Southern will double the number of B.S. nurses graduating from the university within the next four years, helping to address a critical nursing shortage in Connecticut heightened by the Covid-19 pandemic.

In a bid to boost diversity in the nursing ranks, the grant also funds two new initiatives providing nursing education and career growth opportunities for certified nursing aides and high school students, respectively.

After this week’s visit to Southern and Yale New Haven Hospital, Pellino and Baez feel more confident about their choice to go into the health-care field, as well as having Southern as a potential pathway towards earning a degree.

“I came into this program barely knowing what I wanted to do,” said Baez. “This helped me narrow it down to a family nurse practitioner.”
