“Thrilled to mark the one-year anniversary of Maimonides Bay Ridge Emergency Department — an emergency department like no other,” the hospital said on Facebook. “We are changing how emergency care is delivered, which is how our team achieved the highest patient satisfaction scores in Brooklyn. We look forward to continuing to serve Bay Ridge, Dyker Heights, and beyond.”
The 15,000-square-foot facility occupies the former site of Victory Memorial Hospital. It offers pre-arrival online check-in, 22 treatment bays, CT scan, ultrasound, X-ray, lab testing and an on-site ambulance for quick transfers when hospitalization or specialized care is needed.
