"In light of current events, it's important that Bronxites, New Yorkers, and Americans know that NYC Health + Hospitals/North Central Bronx is a highly accredited healthcare practice that provides top-quality and full spectrum reproductive health services, including the right to abortion care," said CEO Christopher Mastromano. "We thank Governor Hochul and our partners in State government for providing these needed funds so we can amplify our patient care efforts."
"The funding the Governor has provided will allow our facility to expand the world-class abortion and reproductive healthcare we provide," said Dr. Daryl Wieland, Chairperson of Obstetrics and Gynecology for NYC Health + Hospitals/North Central Bronx. "In light of recent events, it's important that New Yorkers and Americans from other states know we are here to provide needed healthcare services to everyone who needs it."
Dr. Wieland explained that the facility would use the funding to expand access to abortion care by hiring and training personnel responsible for facilitating patient navigation, education, equipment, and supportive care during treatment.
