    Merrill

    Dear Sisters and Brothers,

    Welcome to 2026! I hope your holiday season was restful and filled with spending time with your friends and loved ones. As we settle into the new year, now is the time to set new habits and plan to make changes (or keep going!) with activities that support our minds and our bodies. It can be easy to hunker down and hibernate during the winter months, and although restful days indoors are okay from time to time, it is equally important to maintain social connections, even when it feels hard.

    With so much change and uncertainty in the world, it is more important than ever to start the year off with a clean bill of health. How can you know where you’re going if you don’t have a clear view of what’s in front of you? Make your health a top priority by scheduling all of your preventive screenings and checkups with your primary care doctor as soon as possible. I understand there are certain anxieties that come with going to the doctor, but having peace of mind is the best remedy. What’s better is knowing that if there is an issue, you can start a treatment plan as soon as possible, which improves your long-term results and puts you back on the path to health. We’re also coming out of cold and flu season, and protecting yourself from getting seriously sick by getting checked out and vaccinated is the best way to keep everyone safe and healthy.

    Sometimes it can feel hard to keep our spirits high, especially when it gets dark by 4:00 pm and many of us are still dealing with cold weather and all it brings. But a big part of your total body health is creating a healthy head space and supporting your mental health. I want to encourage you to shake off negative thoughts, avoid “stinking thinking” and stay connected to your community. The Retired Members Division offers a wide variety of ways to get and stay involved, whether it’s learning a new skill, joining a Chapter Meeting or staying active with an exercise class.

    Healthy habits take time but remember: every step counts. Your 1199 retiree family is here to support you on your journey. You can reach out to the Retired Members Division by calling (646) 473-8666 or (877) 369-8340 for those outside of New York.

    In solidarity,

    Mary Stovall-Merrill


    Queridos hermanos y hermanas:

    ¡Bienvenidos al 2026! Espero que su temporada festiva haya sido tranquila y que hayan podido pasar tiempo con sus amigos y seres queridos. Mientras nos instalamos en el nuevo año, este es el momento de crear nuevos hábitos y planificar cambios (o mantenerlos) con actividades que apoyen nuestra mente y nuestro cuerpo. Durante los meses de invierno es fácil quedarse en casa y “hibernar”, y aunque descansar bajo techo está bien de vez en cuando, también es igual de importante mantener conexiones sociales, incluso cuando se siente difícil.

    Con tantos cambios e incertidumbre en el mundo, es más importante que nunca comenzar el año con una buena salud. ¿Cómo saber hacia dónde van si no tienen una visión clara de lo que está frente a ustedes? Hagan de su salud una prioridad programando todos sus exámenes preventivos y chequeos con su médico de atención primaria lo antes posible. Entiendo que ir al doctor puede causar ansiedad, pero tener tranquilidad es el mejor remedio. Aún mejor es saber que, si hay algún problema, pueden comenzar un plan de tratamiento de inmediato, lo que mejora sus resultados a largo plazo y los pone de nuevo en el camino hacia la salud. También estamos saliendo de la temporada de resfriados y gripe, y protegerse contra enfermedades graves mediante un chequeo y vacunación es la mejor manera de mantener a todos seguros y saludables.

    A veces puede ser difícil mantener el ánimo, especialmente cuando oscurece a las 4:00 p.m. y muchos todavía lidiamos con el clima frío y todo lo que conlleva. Pero una parte fundamental de su salud integral es crear un espacio mental saludable y apoyar su bienestar emocional. Quiero alentarlos a dejar a un lado los pensamientos negativos, evitar el “pensamiento apestoso” y mantenerse conectados con su comunidad. La División de Miembros Jubilados ofrece una amplia variedad de maneras de participar y mantenerse involucrados, ya sea aprendiendo una nueva destreza, asistiendo a una Reunión de Capítulo o manteniéndose activos con una clase de ejercicio.

    Los hábitos saludables toman tiempo, pero recuerden: cada paso cuenta. Su familia de jubilados de 1199 está aquí para apoyarlos en su camino. Pueden comunicarse con la División de Miembros Jubilados llamando al (646) 473-8666 o al (877) 369-8340 si están fuera de Nueva York.

    En solidaridad,

    Discover the building blocks to support a healthier you!

    Discover the building blocks to support a healthier you!

    Establishing a healthier lifestyle doesn’t happen overnight—it’s built step by step, block by block. Taking the first steps can feel like the hardest part. By focusing on a few core building blocks, you can strengthen your foundation for long-term well-being and reduce your risk of illness.

    Healthy Eating

    Food fuels your body and mind. A balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins and healthy fats gives you the nutrients you need to thrive. Limit processed foods, sugary drinks and excessive salt to protect your heart, weight and energy levels.

    Physical Activity

    Movement is medicine. Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate activity each week—whether it’s brisk walking, dancing, biking or anything you enjoy that makes your heart beat faster. Exercise helps manage weight, improves mood, lowers blood pressure and strengthens your muscles and bones.

    Sleep

    Rest is not a luxury—it’s essential. Adults should strive for seven to nine hours of quality sleep each night. Sleep recharges your body, sharpens your mind and helps regulate hormones that affect hunger, stress and immunity.

    Emotional Fitness

    Your mental health is just as important as your physical health. Practice stress management through deep breathing, mindfulness, journaling or connecting with loved ones. Don’t hesitate to seek support from a counselor or health professional if you’re struggling.

    Know Your Numbers

    Awareness is essential. Keeping track of your health numbers helps you and your doctor catch and treat any concerns early.

    • BMI (Body Mass Index): Indicator of weight and body composition.
    • Blood pressure: High blood pressure can damage your heart and arteries.
    • Blood sugar: Helps identify risks for diabetes.
    • Cholesterol: High levels can raise the risk of heart disease.

    Avoid Smoking, Vaping and Other Substances

    Tobacco, vaping and recreational drugs can harm your lungs, heart and overall health. If you smoke or vape, talk to your doctor about tools and programs that can help you quit. Even small steps toward cutting down can make a big difference.

    Putting It All Together

    Think of each of these building blocks as part of a structure. When you strengthen one area—like sleep or nutrition—you support the others. Over time, these healthy habits work together to build resilience, energy and a better quality of life.

    Start small, be consistent and remember: Every positive choice you make builds a healthier you.

  • A Message From Yvonne Armstrong, 1199SEIU President

    A Message From Yvonne Armstrong, 1199SEIU President

    A Message From Yvonne Armstrong, 1199SEIU President

    Member Leadership in Action
    Onward to 2026 & the Medicaid Fightback!

    By 1199SEIU President Yvonne Armstrong

    As we enter a new year, we do so with the acknowledgment that 2026 will set the stage for the future of healthcare for generations to come. Our collective fight to defend Medicaid, the nation’s most important healthcare program, which sustains life-saving care for 70 million Americans, is our overarching priority. Why? Because the stability of the Medicaid system underpins everything we are fighting for: our ability to deliver quality care, to secure fair wage increases, to protect and improve our benefits, to prevent layoffs and fix the staffing crisis in our institutions, and to win real healthcare equity in this country.

    If 2025 was about getting our own house in order—recentering our Union around principles of trust, transparency, and empowering members to lead—2026 is when we will unleash the full force of our collective strength as an organization.

    Through our Union-wide listening tours this fall, Secretary-Treasurer Veronica Turner-Biggs and I have traveled to every corner of 1199, met with thousands of elected delegates, visited worksites and gathered your input about how we grow as a union. The ideas, insights and priorities shared by members are being transformed into a comprehensive plan of work that will be discussed and voted on by delegates at our Union-wide convention early next year.

    This incredible work that members are undertaking to build our union from within coincides with the major strides we are making to grow political power. 1199 members delivered resounding victories in the November 4 election: electing Zohran Mamdani as our next mayor of NYC, securing a blowout victory for Mikie Sherrill as New Jersey governor, winning important mayoral races in Boston, Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse and Albany, and winning numerous down-ballot races in the Orlando City Council in Florida, in the NY legislature (where 22 of 24 of our candidates won), in county races in the Hudson Valley and Long Island, and beyond.

    A very special shoutout goes to two 1199 members at Guthrie Corning Hospital in upstate New York who were themselves elected to office: Lauren Gaige, RN, won a seat to the Corning Town Council and Justin Eberlin, Surgical Tech, was elected to the Steuben County Legislature. This is the type of 1199 member leadership that will transform our nation!

    Our collective fight to defend Medicaid, the nation’s most important healthcare program which sustains life-saving care for 70 million Americans, is our overarching priority.

    Trump and Republican leaders cut $1 trillion from Medicaid and are about to let Affordable Care Act (ACA) subsidies expire, causing premiums to skyrocket for millions of people, making healthcare the defining political issue for 2026. We need to make our individual states bulwarks against these federal cuts and call on our state leaders to enact budgets that fill in the gaps. Our states have so-called “rainy day funds” meant specifically for times of crisis—and it is certainly the time to draw on these resources.

    Everywhere, we must call attention to the fact that protecting access to healthcare is not a partisan issue: It is supported by overwhelming majorities of Democratic and Republican voters alike. We must let politicians know that voting in any way to cut Medicaid or the ACA, or refusing to spend vital dollars needed to safeguard care, will spell the end of their political careers in the next election. We will be in our state capitals, week after week, starting in January, with an unrelenting message that healthcare must be protected!

    As we embrace this new year, clear-eyed about the heavy challenges ahead but also with deep resolve, commitment and love for our families, communities and co-workers, let’s carry forward the spirit of unity that defined our movement in 2025. Let’s recharge our batteries and prepare ourselves to expand the boundaries of what is possible when healthcare workers stand together. I wish you and your family a Happy New Year, and I look forward to marching alongside you in 2026.

    Liderazgo de Miembros en Acción
    ¡Rumbo al 2026 y a la Medicaid Fightback!

    Por la Presidenta de 1199SEIU, Yvonne Armstrong

    Al comenzar un nuevo año, lo hacemos reconociendo que el 2026 marcará el rumbo del futuro de la atención médica para las generaciones venideras. Nuestra lucha colectiva para defender Medicaid, el programa de salud más importante del país que brinda atención vital a 70 millones de estadounidenses, es nuestra máxima prioridad. ¿Por qué? Porque la estabilidad del sistema Medicaid sustenta todo por lo que luchamos: nuestra capacidad de ofrecer atención de calidad, asegurar aumentos salariales justos, proteger y mejorar nuestros beneficios, evitar despidos y resolver la crisis de personal en nuestras instituciones, y lograr una verdadera equidad en la atención médica en este país.

    Si el 2025 se trató de poner nuestra casa en orden—recentrando nuestro sindicato en principios de confianza, transparencia y empoderando a los miembros para liderar—el 2026 será el año en que desatemos toda la fuerza de nuestra unidad como organización.

    Durante nuestras giras de escucha sindical este otoño, la Secretaria-Tesorera Veronica Turner-Biggs y yo hemos recorrido cada rincón de 1199, nos reunimos con miles de delegados electos, visitamos centros de trabajo y recopilamos sus aportes sobre cómo crecer como sindicato. Las ideas, perspectivas y prioridades compartidas por los miembros se están transformando en un plan de trabajo integral que será discutido y votado por los delegados en nuestra convención sindical a principios del próximo año.

    Este increíble trabajo que los miembros están realizando para fortalecer nuestro sindicato coincide con los avances que estamos logrando para aumentar nuestro poder político. Los miembros de 1199 lograron victorias contundentes en las elecciones del 4 de noviembre: eligieron a Zohran Mamdani como nuestro próximo alcalde de NYC, aseguraron una victoria aplastante para Mikie Sherrill como gobernadora de Nueva Jersey, ganaron importantes elecciones municipales en Boston, Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse y Albany, y obtuvieron numerosos triunfos en elecciones locales en el Concejo Municipal de Orlando (Florida), en la legislatura de NY (donde 22 de nuestros 24 candidatos ganaron), en elecciones de condado en Hudson Valley y Long Island, y más allá.

    Un reconocimiento muy especial para dos miembros de 1199 en el Hospital Guthrie Corning en el norte del estado de Nueva York que fueron elegidos para cargos públicos: Lauren Gaige, RN, ganó un puesto en el Concejo Municipal de Corning y Justin Eberlin, Técnico Quirúrgico, fue electo a la Legislatura del Condado de Steuben. ¡Este es el tipo de liderazgo de miembros de 1199 que transformará nuestra nación!

    Nuestra lucha colectiva para defender Medicaid, el programa de atención médica más importante del país que brinda cuidados vitales a 70 millones de estadounidenses, es nuestra máxima prioridad.

    Trump y los líderes republicanos recortaron $1 billón de Medicaid y están a punto de dejar expirar los subsidios de la Ley de Cuidado de Salud a Bajo Precio (ACA), lo que hará que las primas se disparen para millones de personas, convirtiendo la atención médica en el tema político definitorio del 2026. Necesitamos convertir a nuestros estados en bastiones contra estos recortes federales y exigir a nuestros líderes estatales que aprueben presupuestos que cubran las brechas. Nuestros estados tienen llamados “fondos para emergencias” diseñados específicamente para tiempos de crisis—y sin duda este es el momento de usar esos recursos.

    En todas partes debemos destacar que proteger el acceso a la atención médica no es un tema partidista: cuenta con el apoyo abrumador de votantes demócratas y republicanos por igual. Debemos dejar claro a los políticos que votar para recortar Medicaid o la ACA, o negarse a gastar los fondos vitales necesarios para proteger la atención, significará el fin de sus carreras políticas en la próxima elección. Estaremos en las capitales estatales, semana tras semana, comenzando en enero, con un mensaje inquebrantable: ¡la atención médica debe ser protegida!

    Al recibir este nuevo año, con plena conciencia de los grandes desafíos que se avecinan pero también con profunda determinación, compromiso y amor por nuestras familias, comunidades y compañeros de trabajo, llevemos adelante el espíritu de unidad que definió nuestro movimiento en 2025. Recarguemos nuestras energías y preparémonos para ampliar los límites de lo que es posible cuando los trabajadores de la salud se unen. Les deseo a usted y a su familia un Feliz Año Nuevo y espero marchar junto a ustedes en 2026.

    Stephanie says they’re enjoying married life and the blending of their routines—including her 4:30 am gym sessions! And she’s thrilled to have a hiking partner for life. “We’re looking forward to our future together,” she said, “and hoping one day to have children and build a family committed to living a happy and healthy lifestyle.” Congratulations, Stephanie and Jeffrey!

    Junior Beauzile, Maintenance Lead, Luxor Nursing and Rehabilitation at Sayville

    In his Members’ Voices video, Junior Beauzile shared his dream of taking his children to Haiti, the island where he grew up. This year, he fulfilled that dream by bringing Julianna, Zoe, Leah, Jazzy and Danny on a cruise to the island. “They were thrilled,” he said. “They loved seeing the fish in the clear blue water.”

    Junior has also been busy at home, expanding his backyard garden to grow more vegetables, including green pumpkin. His wife, Lillian, was so impressed that she found a recipe for Soup Joumou to make with it. “I was surprised,” Junior said. “And of course, it was delicious!”

    Featured Member: Marlene Hardy

    Merlene Hardy

    Registration Associate, Northwell Health

    WHY

    Following knee surgery and weight gain, Merlene, a mother of five, faced a prediabetes diagnosis that became her wake-up call. With determination, she embraced her doctor’s advice and began a transformative journey toward a healthier life.

    Merlene Hardy, a Registration Associate at Northwell Health Imaging at Great Neck, comes from a family dedicated to caring for the health of others.

    However, only a few years ago, she faced a challenge in managing her own health. After knee surgery following a car accident, Merlene experienced significant stress and turned to food for comfort, gaining 40 pounds, which led to back and knee pain. As a mother of five, she faced a turning point when she was diagnosed with prediabetes. Motivated to lose weight, she began her health journey by embracing her doctor’s advice to make lifestyle changes.

    Listen to Merlene’s story.

    She started taking lunchtime walks—sometimes by herself, sometimes with co-workers—and later added dancing at home to her routine. “I like to work out by moving to the music,” she said. Reggae, a lifelong favorite, keeps her energized: “It just makes you feel so good!”

    Merlene also began eating healthier meals, incorporating homemade shakes and cutting down on white bread, pasta and fried food. Instead, she chooses Greek salads, along with baked or broiled proteins, seasoned with garlic, onion and a touch of olive oil. “My shrimp and salmon still get crispy in the oven,” she said. “I get all the flavor without the fat.”

    Merlene’s hard work has paid off. She lost 50 pounds and her A1C numbers are back to normal levels.

    In addition, her doctor prescribed a low-dose GLP-1 that she plans to stop taking once she reaches her goal weight. She believes it will be possible because of her healthy diet combined with a simple but effective technique. “When I’m full, I stop eating,” she said. “I drink water before meals and unsweetened green tea after, and it keeps me from eating between meals.”

    Merlene’s hard work has paid off. She lost 50 pounds and her A1C numbers are back to normal levels—dropping from 6.0 to 5.1!

    With her future looking bright, Merlene has been spending time on her favorite hobby—making body butters and skin-care products under her own label, Body by Sweets. “Doing research on natural oils and how to make lotions for smooth skin is something I really enjoy,” she said. “And now that my numbers have improved, I can focus more on that. I know I’m still a work in progress, but I feel like anything is possible for the new year!”
