Emergency Medicine Residency Program
Thank you for your interest in Garnet Health Medical Center's Emergency Medicine Residency Program.
Our Emergency Department accommodates over 77,000 emergency visits each year which includes 55 treatment bays, a helipad, and three-bay ambulance garage. Our six bed dedicated Pediatric Emergency Department provides care in a child-friendly environment. We are currently a Level II Trauma Center, with a dedicated CT and x-ray suite in the department. We are also a Heart (STEMI) Center and a Stroke Center.
The emergency department is currently undergoing an expansion that will occur in three phases over three years with an anticipated date of completion in 2023. We will have over 100 beds including an observation unit in the emergency department. The completed emergency department will be tiered by acuity including a critical care pod, step-down pod, fast-track/low acuity pods, pediatrics, and an enlarged behavioral health unit.
Garnet Health Medical Center has established a solid foundation for medical education through our continued partnership with our sponsoring institution, NYCOMEC. As of September 2019, the Emergency Residency Program is an ACGME Continued Accreditation program.
Mission Statement:
The Emergency Medicine Residency Program at Garnet Health Medical Center will use a greatly supportive and collegial training environment in a high volume and high acuity setting to educate generations of emergency physicians, while providing exceptional and compassionate healthcare to the community.
