Emergency Contact Information

In addition to the information contained in the links, GNYHA has also collected emergency contact information for its hospital members and many continuing care members. The information collected includes information concerning health care facilities' emergency operation centers, chairs of disaster commitiees, and other emergency contact information. This information is available to members and appropriate government agencies upon request.

  • To assist members, GNYHA provides staff coverage at the New York City Office of Emergency Management (OEM) Emergency Operations Center (EOC) whenever the EOC is activated. Although the EOC is located in New York City, GNYHA staff at the EOC are available to assist all members, whether located in or outside New York City, and to coordinate with all appropriate local agencies, including emergency management agencies, wherever they may be located as well.  
  • The following are contact numbers for many local, state, and Federal agencies that GNYHA members may need to contact in an emergency. Note that the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security have indicated that GNYHA members should not call them directly; they must first call their comparable local agency in the event of an emergency.
