The closures appear to contradict a Cuomo-era consolidation plan for Kingsbrook Jewish Medical Center and two nearby hospitals.
The East Flatbush safety-net hospital, which predominantly serves low-income patients in a majority Black and brown neighborhood, has been gradually gutted as part of a state-funded $664 million merger that created the One Brooklyn Health system. | Scott Heins/Getty ImagesNEW YORK — Kingsbrook Jewish Medical Center is in the process of closing its emergency department and halting acute rehabilitation and outpatient dialysis services by this fall.
One Brooklyn Health executives briefed health care workers on the plans in July and have already begun preparing patients and staff to transition to other providers and move into other jobs within the system. Over 300 employees, many of them unionized, will be affected by the closures. “We have to be responsible in identifying where there are opportunities for us to reduce our expenses and to reduce our dependency on the state,” Brown said in an interview.
