The Children’s Medical Fund of New York (CMF) works tirelessly to ensure that every child receives the best medical care possible. As President of CMS and Managing Member of the NIR Group, Corey Ribotsky works with many other volunteers to see the center’s missions fulfilled.
Presently, CMF is hoping to expand in many ways. They are hoping to build a dedicated pediatric emergency center so that they will no longer have to share an emergency room with Long Island Jewish Medical Center. At the moment, seriously ill children need to go to Long Island Jewish, unnecessarily exposing them to illnesses and issues common to an adult facility.
In addition, the Children’s Medical Fund of New York is hoping to create a new space to meet the growing pediatric needs of children in the area. At present, the Schneider Children’s Hospital, which was built to accommodate 40,000 annual visits, actually sees 160,000 children a year.
