Mayor Shawyn Patterson-Howard and Montefiore Einstein unveiled the newly renovated Family Health & Wellness Center at Montefiore Mount Vernon Hospital. The ribbon cutting marks the completion of the first project phase of the Master Plan for the hospital, backed by a $41 Million New York State Capital Transformation Program Investment.
Montefiore's modernized primary and specialty care facility will re-open its doors to patients on Monday, December 22 and will feature Montefiore Einstein's services ranging from cardiology, gynecology and infectious disease to neurology, with new services like ear, nose and throat medicine. Additional specialty care services will be added soon, in accordance with demand as identified by the Community Health Needs Assessment recently conducted for Mount Vernon.
The 8,200 square feet facility is outfitted with brand new equipment, ergonomically designed exam rooms and workstations, a new electronic medical record system and mobile patient monitoring devices designed to improve the flow and delivery of care.
Looking ahead, the additional project phases of the transformation plan for Montefiore Mount Vernon Hospital, which includes the redesign and upgrade of its Emergency Department and expanded operating rooms outfitted with state-of-the-art equipment, is anticipated to be complete in the second half of 2027.
