Just a quick reminder we are making the transition to our new pediatric ED on Tuesday the 9th at 0700.
Renovations to existing pediatric ED to accommodate expansion of the adult ED. Once completed we will typically see higher acuity patients on the “A†side (current adult ED) while the “B†side will see less acute patients. Starting off our B side will see normal operations from 0800-midnight. We are striving to reduce wait times and transition to triage patients at the bedside.
The CFR class is a NYS Department of Health Bureau of EMS state certification program that will begin on Sunday September 11, 2016 and complete with a state certification exam on Thursday November 17, 2016. This Sunday only class will start at 10AM and is scheduled to finish at 4PM. Register online of call 738-8351 for more information
