History[edit]

Brookdale opened on April 11, 1921 with one building housing 75 beds between Brownsville, East New York, and Canarsie. The first President of the Medical Board was Simon R. Blatteis, who was also a leading figure in organizing the development of the hospital.^[3] Originally called the Brownsville and East New York Hospital, it was renamed Beth-El Hospital in 1932. The hospital, under the directorship of Jacob Rutstein, greatly expanded its facilities at that time. It became Brookdale Hospital in 1963, and Brookdale Hospital Medical Center in 1971. In 1993, Brookdale opened the first designated long term AIDS center in Brooklyn. It was later renamed the Treatment for Life Center. The Radutzky Emergency Care Pavilion was dedicated in 1982, and was designated a Level I Trauma Center in the same year. A major expansion was completed in 2004. In 2005 Brookdale became a 911 receiving Stroke Center.

Superstorm Sandy[edit]

In late October 2012, a few days before expected arrival Hurricane Sandy in New York, Brookdale Hospital was enlisted by the New York State Department of Health in the State’s emergency response efforts to the anticipated storm. Brookdale was asked to house and care for 105 acute-care nursing home residents and hospital patients at its main hospital facility. Ninety-five residents from three nursing homes in the zone of flood risk (Lawrence Nursing Home, Ocean Promenade Nursing Center, and Shore View Nursing Center). The remaining 10 patients came from Coney Island Hospital, also in the probable flood zone. Patients under the supervision of the US Public Health Service arrived on October 31, 2012 and stayed through the end of November, 2012.

Preparing to accommodate these nursing home residents and hospital patients involved an emergency staff effort to retrofit two hospital floors that were being used for hospital storage. On October 10, 2013, Brookdale was awarded $2.3 million for unreimbursed operating costs to house and care for nursing home residents as well as other patients in its main building in Brooklyn, and for the expenses incurred to renovate and retrofit two floors in the hospital to make them patient-ready.
