At long last, the walk-in emergency department at the former Long Island College Hospital is scheduled to offer full emergency services starting on Friday.
NYU Langone signed a lease earlier this month to operate at the site which will be now called “NYU Langone-Cobble Hill.”
It will be open 24-hours a day, seven days a week and staffed by more than 100 employees.
NYU Langone says it will be prepared to take care of patients, but will have ambulances on site if they need to be transferred to other hospitals for further services.
NYU plans to construct a new permanent medical facility by late 2017 or early 2018 that will employ 70 doctors and a total staff of 400.
