Morgan Stanley Children’s Hospital

New York's first hospital for children, Babies and Children's Hospital opened its doors in 1887. Now known as Morgan Stanley Children’s Hospital (and sometimes referred to as “CHONY,” for Children’s Hospital of New York), this 268,000 square-foot tower was designed with the unique needs of children in mind, and includes spacious rooms with family functional zones as well as decentralized Child Life suites. The hospital has around 200 pediatric beds, including the 50-bed Neonatal and 27-bed Pediatric ICUs. It is a functionally independent institution at CUIMC with a Level 1 Pediatric Trauma-equipped emergency department and eight operating suites (including robotic capabilities with a teaching console), all staffed by health professionals dedicated specifically to the care of children.
