Description

ROCKVILLE CENTRE, NY — Long Island Catholic Health Services is planning to open a new outpatient medical building on the Mercy Hospital campus next year. The hospital was awarded grants from the Department of Health and the Mother Cabrini Health Foundation to enhance access to medical care for underserved patients. The hospital will use the funds to create a 16,000-square-foot building that will house all of its outpatient services. All of the outpatient clinics in the hospital will be moved to the new building, which will be built where the convent of the Congregation of the Infant Jesus currently stands. Hospital officials said the stained glass of the convent is being preserved and will be integrated into the new building. The building will expand the hospital's outpatient capacity and allow it to offer new services, including primary care, cardiology and endocrinology. Construction of the center is scheduled to begin at the start of next month, and the center is scheduled to open in early 2022.
