The recent ribbon-cutting ceremony of Jamaica Hospital’s Trump Pavilion Nursing and Rehabilitation Center provided a gleam of hope to the bleak healthcare crisis in Queens. In the wake of the recent loss of hospital beds and severe healthcare funding cuts, the opening of Trump Pavilion provides an additional facility to the residents of Queens.
“This innovative healthcare facility took two years to build and its completion couldn’t have come at a better time,” said David P. Rosen, President and CEO of Jamaica Hospital.
Trump Pavilion has 20 more beds than the original facility it replaces. It is designed to serve short- and long-term rehabilitation patients, most of whom are admitted directly from Jamaica Hospital. This will make more beds available at Jamaica Hospital, providing some relief to the space concerns recently experienced by the facility after two nearby Queens hospitals closed.
In addition to being able to meet the heightened Queens’ healthcare needs, the facility boasts deluxe amenities and offers patients exceptional rehabilitative and skilled nursing care in a luxurious, full service facility. Trump Pavilion has a stunning four-story atrium, large and appealing dining areas, comfortable patient lounges with internet access, a hair salon, and a fully-equipped, modern therapy gym. Its spacious bi-axial rooms are designed to provide patients with substantial privacy. Patients can also expect the same quality of care that earned the original facility its trusted reputation— a comprehensive array of medical services including orthopedic rehabilitation, post-stroke rehabilitation, IV therapy, and post-surgery wound care.
“When construction initially began on the new Trump Pavilion for Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, we knew that it would be a valuable and much-needed healthcare resource for the Queens community,” explained Greg Bradley, Executive Vice President of Trump Pavilion. “It’s the first new facility of this type to be constructed in the borough in nearly a decade and we are extremely glad to offer patients exceptional rehab in such an impressive facility.”
