Mount Sinai South Nassau completes $10 million stroke care expansion in Oceanside

Mount Sinai South Nassau completed a $10 million expansion to provide advanced, around-the-clock care for stroke patients in Oceanside. The expanded stroke and cerebrovascular program includes three neuroendovascular surgeons and two biplane imaging systems, one in a hybrid operating room and one near the emergency department. Previously, advanced stroke patients requiring specialized care had to be transported to other hospitals.

The expansion allows the hospital to provide complex procedures for cerebrovascular disease locally, which was the third leading cause of death for adults in Nassau County in 2023. Mount Sinai South Nassau is noted as the only South Shore hospital offering these advanced services.
