Peninsula Hospital Center

Within the past
five years, Peninsula Hospital Center completed a modernization of its
Department of Emergency Medicine
that included a complete renovation of patient treatment areas and most
recently, the modernization, expansion and upgrade of its
mammography suite. The
Hospital Center’s “Century Projects”
include the upgrade and renovation of the inpatient dialysis unit,
acquisition of a new linear accelerator and the expansion of radiation
oncology services, expanded surgical services, acquisition of new heath
information technology and the expansion of the Adult and Pediatric Diabetes
Programs. Perhaps the most exciting project is the construction of a
Cardiac
Catheterization Laboratory in collaboration with the Long Island Jewish
Medical Center, which will be of vast significance in the prevention,
discovery and management of heart disease in our region. To
commemorate the 100th year of service to the community, the Hospital Center
recently acquired the latest in AngioScreen technology and is offering
screenings free of charge to the community
to assist in the early warning signs for stroke, hypertension and heart
disease. |
