Time and expertise matter when life-threatening illness or injury occurs. That’s why, Maimonides Medical Center, Maimonides Midwood Community Hospital, Maimonides Bay Ridge Emergency Department, and Maimonides Children’s Hospital are Brooklyn’s top choices for all levels of emergency care.
The Emergency Department at Maimonides Medical Center is certified by the American College of Surgeons as a Level 1 Trauma Center, providing the highest level of care to adults and children 24-hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. We perform the latest diagnostic techniques and lifesaving procedures and have a dedicated psychiatric emergency department with psychiatrists, psychologists, nurses, and social workers.
Maimonides is home to the only pediatric trauma center in Brooklyn. Children have different medical needs than adults, so it’s important they are seen by pediatric emergency experts when they are ill or experience trauma of any kind. Pediatric emergency care, including care in our Level 2 Pediatric Trauma Center, is provided in the fully accredited Children’s Emergency Department at Maimonides Children’s Hospital.
