We are proud to recognize our New Beginnings Team member, Lauren Shore, LMSW,  a social worker in Flushing Hospital Medical Center’s Mother-Baby New Beginnings unit. Lauren began her career at Flushing Hospital 22 years ago, first working in the Women’s Services division of the Ambulatory Care Center,  then moving on to her current role in the Mother-Baby unit.

Lauren truly enjoys working with our patients and being able to take care of them from the start of their journey into parenthood. She takes pride in working as a social worker. Her position allows her to support families during the most challenging and transformative times in their lives.

She finds purpose in helping families feel heard, empowered, and connected to the care they need. Witnessing their strength and resilience and knowing that she can make a difference during this critical time makes her work deeply meaningful.
