SUNY Downstate Hospital Renovation and Ambulatory Surgery Center

Planned

An advisory board recommended that SUNY Downstate University Hospital reduce its bed count from 342 to 192 and build a four-story ambulatory surgery center across the street to improve financial stability and modernize facilities. The renovation includes upgrading mechanical, electric, and plumbing systems, converting all patient rooms to private rooms, and expanding emergency room capacity. The ambulatory surgery center will include operating rooms, patient beds, a cardiac catheterization lab, and an oncology suite.
