The logo will support the health system’s efforts to introduce the Northwell Health name to the public as part of a multi-year process to build recognition of the new name and distinguish the organization in a cluttered health care market.

“With our new name comes a whole new identity. Our new look presents a fresh, modern face to the world with a vibrant palette of colors representing our vast health system working in unison to deliver world-class care,” said Ramon Soto, the health system’s chief marketing and communications officer. “We chose a logo that brings together our 21 hospitals and our team of over 60,000 doctors, nurses, medical professionals, scientists, innovators, thinkers and trailblazers, working collaboratively toward the common goal of superior healthcare for everyone. Our size and connectivity gives us strength. We have a powerful story to tell and our new logo captures this spirit.”

The logo, developed by branding consultant firm Monigle, was introduced to the health system’s employees as part of an overall employee communications and engagement effort that will continue into 2017. The health system’s internal communications platform includes a revamped employee Intranet, social media, multi-media campaigns and in-person experiences. In addition, a new employee app, called myNorthwell, was launched to drive employee communications and engagement efforts centering on the new Northwell Health name.

In September, the North Shore LIJ Board of Trustees unanimously approved the health system’s name change to Northwell Health, which comes 18 years after the historic merger that created the  North Shore-LIJ Health System. The names of all of the health system’s 21 hospitals will remain unchanged, in recognition of their rich and unique community-based histories.
