INTERFAITH MEDICAL CENTER RECEIVES $3M TO RENOVATE ITS EMERGENCY ROOM
BEDFORD-STUYVESANT — Interfaith Medical Center in Bedford-Stuyvesant is receiving an infusion of funds to renovate its Emergency Room, House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-8th District/central Brooklyn) announced late Friday, in tandem with New York’s two U.S. Senators.
Congressman Jeffries and Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) secured $3 million for the Interfaith Medical Center, on Atlantic Avenue in Central Brooklyn, through the recently-enacted government funding law. The funds will bring a modern, improved layout to the Emergency Room to enhance patient care and improve patient satisfaction and safety. Interfaith Medical Center, a member of the One Brooklyn Health System, serves the Central Brooklyn community providing care to a patient population mostly enrolled in Medicare and Medicaid.
