Northwell - Emergent Care Center

New York City may be the city that never sleeps, but it lacks in certain adequate healthcare facilities. According to recent studies in healthcare trends, outpatient facilities such as urgent care centers and free-standing emergency rooms are in high demand in heavily populated urban areas. This is due to primary care availability with more people who are required to participate in healthcare plans. To reduce overcrowding, a trio of facilities was designed that will cater to New Yorkers around the clock, seven days a week, and conveniently tucked under one roof. In conjunction with the upper level dedicated to urgent care, there is also a free-standing emergency room which operates on the entire ground level. A 24/7 retail pharmacy store front can be conveniently accessible to patients and visitors on the ground level as well.
