What are the current hospitals we have in NY ?

[PPGMD]

I was wondering if we still have Jamaica as a core site. Also, what are the other NY sites since the website isn't that great or hasn't been updated.

[Skipper]

it probably is not the best thing to list our sites on this webpage..

i recommend you calling and asking for the most up to date list directly from the source.

furthermore, if you are just starting out as a first semster by the time you get to clinicals they can have more or different hospitals

Thanks...I am a 5th semester but I wanted to get some facts from students that are out there to compare against when the people from MIA come down to talk to us. They always seem to not know the answers to our questions or do a great job of dodging the question itself.

someone can always come do an away elective with me at my hospital.....i promise i won't bite and you'd get a much better education that at our core sites

Which hospital? LOL:D

i don't know all of the sites, and definately check with other students about which rotations are better at which hospital, but I can give you some sites that I've heard good things about.

Lutheran Hospital- Brooklyn
Staten Island
Flushing

As a parent, I want to be able to move my daughter as little as possible. Are there any locations that I can stay at for one year at least, or ideally, the full two years of rotations? I know the locations may change by the time I'm at that point, but what about currently? The website doesn't really explain which cores are offered at each listed site.

the sites in michigan and cali would allow you to spend at least 1 year and maybe even 2 years in one place. Also, if you go to maryland, the majority of your rotations are there, with the exception of peds and OB which will probably be in New York.

There are a bunch of hospitals in New York, so if you go there, you wont have to move your kids. However, the new york school systems are awful, so if you school age kids, I would recommend you do your rotations elsewhere.

I heard recently that there will be only SGU students there soon.

the best source is through the horses mouth, so call MEAS and ask them.

all the information here is either outdated or just people throwing out their 2 cents.

MEAS will verify, but we did lose Jamaica; however, we have Caritas back (I am not sure for how long).
