It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the Mohawk Valley Health System’s Professional Education training programs.
Located in the beautiful Mohawk Valley in Central New York State, we have been training residents within our walls since 1975 and are more than excited to announce that we are expanding our programs in 2022 to include additional residency programs, expanded opportunities for students in multiple medical disciplines and the creation of integrated research opportunities with multiple medical schools and universities. These programs will start to roll out in 2022 and will continue over the next few years as we strive to become one of the largest academic hospitals in Central New York.
We are also proud to announce that funding opportunities available through New York State have allowed us to consolidate inpatient services and build a new, free-standing medical center, expecting to open in late 2023. The Wynn Hospital, named through a generous gift from The Wynn Family Foundation, brings the existing hospital services, currently located on two different campuses, to one modern downtown campus that will offer advanced medicine and technologically progressive care. It will feature a 672,000 square foot, nine-story hospital building with 373 patient beds and 47 Emergency Department treatment spaces. Once completed, it will be the newest hospital built in New York State in 30 years.
Our vision to be the trusted healthcare system of choice through clinical quality, compassionate care, promotion of wellness, and operational efficiency starts with a commitment and dedication to ensuring the highest standards of excellence in our employees, staff and trainees. Please feel free to explore our website to learn more about our history, our geography and our mission to transform the accessibility of healthcare in Central New York.
Sincerely,
Dr. Eric Yoss,
Designated Institutional Official (DIO)
