What a Difference a Sticker Can Make
Center patients benefit from a collaborative effort between specialists across departments at Columbia Univeristy's Medical Center, Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital and NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital. Center patients are identified throughout the hospital by our trademark sticker with our logo and phone number. This alerts nurses, physicians and counselors that an expecting mother or baby's care is being coordinated by our staff which leads to an immediate resoultion of any issues that may arise.
