Providing our patients with the highest-quality care is a top priority for Jamaica Hospital Medical Center and Flushing Hospital Medical Center. Therefore, our patients and community can rest assured that the pending CIR work stoppage will not impact inpatient or outpatient care. Our hospitals have implemented a comprehensive strike plan to ensure all services remain open to our community. No elective procedures have been postponed or cancelled and all medical and surgical clinical appointments will remain open.
Jamaica Hospital Medical Center is pleased to announce that it has partnered with Shape Up NYC, a program created by the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation, to offer a free, low impact exercise class to our employees and the members of the community, over the age of 18. Many of the classes are taught by Jamaica Hospital’s very own, highly qualified staff. Improving the health and wellness of the community it serves is a high priority at Jamaica Hospital. The hospital offers many free programs that provide its population with the resources needed to lead a healthy life.
Providing a free low impact total body workout offers many benefits to participants including: improved balance, coordination, strength and flexibility. The program also promotes good heart health.
Schedule of classes:
Shape Up NYC classes are canceled until further notice due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
