On Saturday, Sept. 20, the hospital\u2019s leadership team engaged with the Community Advisory Board to talk about various topics. These included strategic priorities, patient care enhancements and the future direction of Lincoln Hospital, located at 234 E. 149th St. The insights provided from this collaborative retreat were vital towards the hospital continuing to accomplish its mission of serving the community.<\/p>\n
