Mount Sinai Queens New Intensive Care Unit Expansion

under construction

Mount Sinai Health System is constructing a new clinically advanced intensive care unit (ICU) at Mount Sinai Queens to nearly triple the current ICU capacity from 8 to 21 beds. The project will increase the hospital's total certified bed count from 228 to 241 beds. The new ICU will be built on the sixth floor of the hospital's main campus, transforming underutilized space into a modern critical care environment with a class 2 procedure room for moderate-risk surgical or interventional procedures. The expansion aims to meet rising patient acuity needs, reduce emergency department congestion, decrease patient transfers out of the borough, and enhance the hospital's ability to perform complex surgical procedures locally.
