Bellevue Hospital Center
On November 16 at 9 am, our first presentation was
for the Executive Cabinet at Bellevue Hospital Center,
including Carlos Perez, Executive Director, Theresa
Rejrat, Deputy Executive Director for Nursing, Terry
Miles, CEO for the Bellevue Hospital Network, and
Robert Hessler, Assistant Director for Emergency Services.
Our host and guardian angel at Bellevue was Jennifer
Lopez, Director of Community Affairs.
Bellevue is the oldest public hospital in the country
and has served patients since 1736. While Bellevue
is well known for its psychiatric care, it is
in fact a full-service medical facility. Bellevue
is the only hospital in New York City with concurrent
designations as a Level-I Trauma Center, Heart Station,
Microsurgical and Replantation Center, and Regional
Center for Head and Spinal Cord Injuries. They treated
many of the victims from Ground Zero because of their
south Manhattan location and world renowned emergency
care.
