Welcome to Nassau University Medical Center (NUMC). At NUMC, we are more than just a hospital; we are a community committed to providing exceptional care to every patient who walks through our doors. Employees of our hospital are an جزء لا يتجزأ of the community, and everyone at NUMC is committed to upholding our mission of delivering high-quality healthcare to the residents of Nassau County.
Each year, NUMC has the privilege of providing care to over 270,000 patients from diverse backgrounds and circumstances, which highlights our unwavering dedication to addressing the healthcare needs of our community. Notably, about 70% of our patients come from minority and lower-income communities, reaffirming our commitment to serving those most in need.
As a level-one trauma center, NUMC is fully equipped to handle emergencies, delivering critical, life-saving care to more than 67,000 emergency room patients annually. NUMC also houses the Fire Fighters’ Burn Center with a dedicated Burn Unit and Burn Clinic, as well as the only multi-patient Hyperbaric Chamber on Long Island. This provides specialty care to patients with burns, wounds, and inhalation injuries. NUMC is also the only hospital in all of Manhattan, Queens and Long Island to offer hydro-birthing as a natural alternative for low-risk mothers.
In addition to our emergency services, NUMC offers a wide range of specialized care programs designed to address the unique needs of our patients. From advanced cardiac care to innovative oncology treatments, our specialized clinics and departments are staffed by experts who are passionate about providing the best possible care to our community. NUMC is an academic center with over 300 residents recognized by the Accreditation Council of Graduate Medical Education with full accreditations in multiple specialties.
The Detox Unit at Nassau University Medical Center offers a safe haven for individuals withdrawing from alcohol, opiates, and other addictive substances, providing comprehensive care within our recently renovated 10th-floor units. Here, our dedicated multidisciplinary team, comprising physicians, psychologists, counselors, social workers, nurses, nutritionists, and clergy is a beacon of hope to those grappling with chemical dependency.
Additionally, the construction of a new Cath Lab marks a significant milestone for NUMC and the communities we serve. This facility not only enhances the quality and efficiency of our care but also contributes to revenue generation. We believe that you deserve nothing short of excellence in healthcare, driving our commitment to expanding our services to better meet the needs of our communities.

لقد كانت NUMC مصدرًا للراحة والخدمة والفخر للمجتمع المحيط بها وما وراءه. يوفر NUMC الرعاية الصحية لجميع احتياجات سكان ناسو:
- عندما تحطمت رحلة أفيانكا 52 في لونغ آيلاند في 25 يناير 1990 وعلى متنها 158 شخصًا ، تم نقل غالبية المرضى المصابين إلى المركز الطبي بجامعة ناسو (ثم مركز مقاطعة ناسو الطبي) ؛ ذهبت ممرضات وأطباء من NUMC إلى مكان الحادث للمساعدة في جميع جوانب الرعاية.
- كان NUMC المستشفى الرئيسي المتلقي لإطلاق طريق Long Island للسكك الحديدية في 7 ديسمبر 1993.
- في عام 2010 ، تسبب زلزال في أضرار مدمرة لجزيرة هايتي. أرسلت NUMC فريقًا من الأطباء والممرضات للمساعدة في جميع مخاوف الرعاية الصحية بعد الزلزال.
- بعد إعصار ساندي في 29 أكتوبر 2012 ، فتحت NUMC و A. Holly Patterson Extended Care Center أبوابها للمرضى من المستشفيات المتضررة ، ومرافق رعاية التمريض ، وأولئك الذين يحتاجون إلى مساعدة طبية خاصة بسبب نقص الكهرباء ومساعدتهم في الرعاية الطبية عند الإخلاء المراكز الموجودة في جميع أنحاء الجزيرة.
- During the COVID-19 pandemic, NUMC was the county’s primary overflow center for patients who contracted the virus.
Our team is committed to providing you with the highest quality care in a compassionate and supportive environment. From our welcoming reception areas to our state-of-the-art treatment rooms, every aspect of NUMC is designed with your comfort and well-being in mind.
