NYU Langone to close Lutheran Augustana Center
Medical facility provides rehab, skilled nursing for patients
A major Brooklyn medical facility that serves patients in need of skilled nursing, physical therapy, pain management and hospice care is closing its doors in 2018, the Brooklyn Eagle has learned.
NYU Langone Health Systems, which owns and operates Lutheran Augustana Center, a rehabilitation and nursing program at 5434 Second Ave. in Sunset Park, is planning to close the center in the summer of 2018, officials confirmed.
Elected officials in Sunset Park and Bay Ridge were informed of the decision this week.
