Patients & Visitors

For many of our patients, a hospital stay is a new and different experience that can cause fear, anxiety and stress. For visitors, the experience can be just as emotional, as they worry about a family member or loved one. The lives of both patients and visitors should not be complicated any further over uncertainty, whether it involves locating a hospital, understanding your rights, figuring out your bill or even knowing where to eat.

The goal at Montefiore Medical Center is to put the minds of both patients and their visitors at ease, assuring them that their healthcare team is committed to providing them with the highest level of care and service that will help their recovery be as quick and as comfortable as possible.

We aim to achieve quality clinical outcomes with a high level of responsiveness to the patient's concern, pain and personal needs. In addition, we strive to offer physical and emotional environments that are welcoming, professional, and confidence-inspiring. We also make every attempt to offer superior services that are coordinated and patient-centered.

At Montefiore, patients and families are valued as partners in the care process, listened to and educated, and served by associates who demonstrate the Standards of Montefiore Excellence: respect, exceeding expectations, effective communication, courtesy, sensitivity, teamwork and professionalism.

We are constantly striving to improve our service, and we encourage all of our guests to tell us what we can do better. We intend to live up to our Standards at all times, and we want you to expect the best from us. Please do not hesitate to speak to your nurse, physician or a customer service specialist about how we are doing.
