Northwell Health - Staten Island University Hospital
Program Description
Type of Program
Staten Island University Hospital is a 714-bed, specialized tertiary care teaching hospital located in New York City's 5th and fastest-growing borough. SIUH consists of two sites (North and South), which are two of only three
hospitals on Staten Island. SIUH North is a level-I trauma center,
STEMI center with a 24-hour cath lab, regional burn center, and
designated New York state stroke center. Our yearly patient volume is

that provides a different experience from our tertiary center at SIUH
North. We have a burgeoning 3-year emergency medicine residency
program and a diverse faculty with additional fellowship training in a
variety of specialties, including administration, toxicology and pediatrics.
