Newark-Wayne Community Hospital, an affiliate hospital of Rochester Regional Health, is a 120-bed small community hospital in Wayne County, New York.[1] Newark-Wayne Community Hospital was the first of its kind in New York to offer a telemedicine program to connect with its patients. The hospital also provides services including cardiology, urology, obstetrics, gynecology, orthopedics, and pulmonary care.[2] [3]
Newark-Wayne is a New York State-designated Stroke Center, a Level 1 Perinatal Center,[4] a NICHE (Nurses Improving Care for Healthsystem Elders) hospital and a recent recipient of the WHO Baby-Friendly designation.
The hospital's emergency department was renovated in March 2013. Following the renovations, it was named the Daniel Alexander M.D. Emergency Department.[5]
Further renovations began in June 2016, part of Rochester Regional Health's system-wide modernization plan, to include a new modern exterior, add over 2,500 square feet of space, and renovate over 13,000 square feet of existing space to the hospital's main entrance. Additionally, a mediation space just off the waiting area will be built to give guests a quiet place to reflect and pray.[6]
