Michael Dowling, Pres. and CEO NSLIJ Health System & Dr. Nirav R. Shah, NYS Health Comm.: Keep Glen Cove Hospital a Full Service Hospital
The Issue
Please join us as we urge North Shore - LIJ Health System to postpone and reconsider their plans to transform Glen Cove Hospital into an Ambulatory Care Only Hospital. The closing or downsizing of a community hospital has countless negative effects on the immediate and surrounding communities. Eliminating inpatient beds and transforming the hospital into an ambulatory care facility would be devastating to our residents, our three assisted living communities, nursing home patients, local businesses and real estate, not to mention the effect on our Emergency Service Corps (EMS), and public health and safety. Remember, every voice and every signature counts. Let's work together to SAVE GLEN COVE HOSPITAL.
