ST. BARNABAS HOSPITAL
St. Barnabas Hospital is a not-for-profit, nonsectarian,
acute care community hospital located in the heart of
the central Bronx. St. Barnabas, the 15th largest
hospital in New York State, is adjacent to Fordham
University, the Bronx Zoo, New York Botanical
Gardens and the Arthur Avenue shopping district. The
expanding St. Barnabas healthcare delivery system
provides inpatient, outpatient and emergency medical
and dental services. The hospital’s primary care
facilities are conveniently located throughout the
Bronx.
History
St. Barnabas Hospital was established on April 6, 1866
as The Home for the Incurables. At the time, it was
America's first chronic disease hospital, and only the
world's second (the first such hospital opened three years earlier in England). The hospital was founded by
Reverend Rodman, the rector of the Grace Episcopal Church. He called together a group of public-spirited
citizens to explore how to provide a haven for the so-called incurables, who could not be cared for in existing
hospitals. His goal was to bring hope and medical care to a group that had neither. Dr. P. C. Pease, the Home for
Incurables' first physician, noted that, "...where the faintest hope exists, no efforts are spared nor are any new
remedies left untried." The Home received its first patients in 1867 in a small, frame building. Thirty-three
patients were admitted the first year. St. Barnabas Hospital has since grown to become a major healthcare
provider in New York State.

THE DEPARTMENT OF PEDIATRICS
Since its inception in January 1999, the Department of Pediatrics has grown from a faculty of 11 pediatricians to
over 50 experienced pediatric primary care and pediatric subspecialty attending physicians. Over the past five
years, the Department has experienced an impressive annual growth rate in outpatient, inpatient and pediatric
emergency services. The goal of the Department has been to address the full spectrum of pediatric problems from
primary care to complicated diagnostic dilemmas. The Department is comprised of the following divisions:
Inpatient Pediatrics, Pediatric Emergency Medicine, Neonatology and Ambulatory Care.
Division of Inpatient Pediatrics/Pediatric Special Care Unit
The Pediatric Inpatient Unit at St. Barnabas Hospital is a
sixteen-bed unit staffed by our group of attending pediatric
hospitalists and general pediatricians. The unit provides care to
children up to eighteen years of age. Interdisciplinary rounds are
held daily on the unit offering our patients and their families
needed social as well as medical support. Within the unit, the
Child Life Room offers patients a safe environment for play.
The Pediatric Special Care Unit (PSCU) is a 4 bed advanced
care unit for those children who require an increased level of
support not offered on the inpatient pediatric unit. Teaching
Rounds are held daily on all patients admitted to the PSCU and
the Pediatric Inpatient Unit. The Pediatric house staff is
responsible for the care of all patients admitted to the Inpatient
Unit and the PSCU.
Division of Pediatric Emergency Medicine
The Division of Pediatric Emergency Medicine at St. Barnabas Hospital functions in a physically separate
specialized facility dedicated to the emergency care of children. The new physical expansion of the Pediatric
Emergency Department has created a large patient and staff friendly environment in which patient care is
optimized. For each of the past 5 years, there has been a substantial growth in outpatient volume. During 2008,
there were approximately 24,000 pediatric patient visits. The case mix of patients seen in the Pediatric Emergency
Department is impressive and ranges from simple to extremely complex medical, surgical, and trauma-related
problems. St. Barnabas Hospital is a New York State designated Level 1 Regional Trauma Center, which further
enhances the pediatric emergency experience.
Division of Neonatology
The Division of Neonatology includes the Well Baby
Nursery (WBN) and a Level III Neonatal Intensive Care
Unit (NICU). Four full-time neonatologists staff the
department, with 24 hour attending coverage.
Our
impressive group of Attending Neonatologists conducts
teaching rounds daily. Due to a greater than 15%
increase in annual deliveries, there are plans to expand
the division. This will include the NICU and WBN and
the development of a high-risk follow-up clinic. The
Division of Neonatology is a member of the Bronx
Perinatal Consortium, allowing for seamless
collaboration on clinical cases and research projects.
Division of Ambulatory Pediatrics
The Department of Pediatrics offers children comprehensive pediatric primary care at six locations throughout the
Bronx. The Pediatric Ambulatory Division continues to grow at an impressive pace. There were approximately
56,000 patients seen during the past year. The Ambulatory Division also has several specialized primary care
programs serving the Bronx Community:


The Adolescent Medicine Program, led by pediatricians trained in adolescent medicine, serves the
community through a teen pregnancy prevention program and provides general adolescent care at the
Teen Health Center.
The Child Advocacy Center provides support services for children and families exposed to high-risk
environments. The Center also facilitates diagnostic evaluations and treatment for children who are





suspected of being victims of child neglect or abuse. Evaluations are conducted in a child-friendly
setting designed to minimize trauma and maximize safety for the entire family.
Reach Out and Read, an innovative national program aimed at promoting early childhood literacy, is a
major initiative of the Division.
The Developmental and Behavioral Program applies progressive techniques in the management of a
variety of developmental disorders.
The Early Intervention Program provides advanced diagnostic and therapeutic care to young children
with developmental delay.
The New York State-designated AIDS Center features comprehensive medical care and case management
for HIV infected women and newborns.
The Community Outreach Program includes participation in local health fairs, school educational
seminars, community-based organizations, and participation in local and regional TV and radio
informational sessions.
Research
The Department of Pediatrics is committed to becoming a premier institution for clinical research dedicated to
child health. As a part of the Clinical Trials Network of the New York-Presbyterian Hospital, we are currently
participating in clinical trials with personnel experienced in clinical research. Our areas of particular interest
include pediatric respiratory disease, pediatric infectious diseases, and clinical epidemiology. In addition to our
participation within the network, we have also initiated several clinical research projects related to child safety,
pediatric asthma, adolescent psychiatry, pediatric dentistry, and developmental and behavioral pediatrics. The
Pediatric Residency Research Program offers monthly Research Seminars (focused on principles of epidemiology
and methodology), a monthly Journal Club, and faculty mentoring of resident initiated research projects.
The success of the Pediatric Residency Research Program is clearly reflected in the number of presentations by
our residents at regional and national pediatric scientific meetings as well as by the enthusiasm of fellowship
directors who appreciate the level of clinical research experience our residents bring to their fellowships. This fact
has translated into recruitment and acceptance of our residents into top programs for advanced fellowship training.
A representative sample of research projects is noted below:

Teaching
All faculty of the Department of Pediatrics maintain academic appointments at the Albert Einstein College of
Medicine and have completed postgraduate training at leading pediatric residencies throughout the country. The
Department of Pediatrics also serves as a site for the pediatric clerkship rotation for medical students from the
Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Since its inception at our hospital, the rotation has consistently received the
highest ratings on medical student evaluations, and our residents have received outstanding teaching awards from
the Einstein students. We also serve as a pediatric clerkship site for students from Ross University School of
Medicine, New York College of Osteopathic Medicine (NYCOM), Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine
(PCOM), St. Matthew’s University, Kansas City University of Medicine & Biosciences, the Columbia University
Nurse Practitioner program, and the Physician Assistant Studies Program of the New York Institute of
Technology. Medical student education is considered a high priority within the Department.

THE PEDIATRIC RESIDENCY PROGRAM: THE CURRICULUM
The Pediatric Residency Training Program at St. Barnabas Hospital is an ACGME approved Residency Program
(#3203521416) that provides medical school graduates with the essentials of the entire Pediatric educational
curriculum - ranging from Pediatric Primary Care to Subspecialty and Intensive Care training, including the tools
to become leaders in the field of Pediatrics. The training experience emphasizes the management of general and
subspecialty problems in both primary care and hospital settings. Rotations at St. Barnabas Hospital, the
Children’s Hospital at Montefiore Medical Center, the Morgan Stanley Children’s Hospital of New York as well
as Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and the Hospital for Special Surgery provide both the intensity and
diversity needed for a well-rounded competency based pediatric education. Our residency offers in-depth clinical
experiences, progressively increasing individual responsibility, and opportunities for elective study and research.
All rotations are organized in 4-week blocks. There are 13 blocks per year including four weeks vacation.
St. Barnabas Hospital Pediatric Residency Graduates – Where are they now?
Our graduates are currently participating or have recently graduated from the following activities: ambulatory
pediatric practice (primary care pediatrics), neonatal fellowship programs (Dartmouth, University of Rochester,
Children’s Hospital of Buffalo, Brown University/Hasbro Children’s Hospital, Children’s Hospital at Montefiore
Medical Center), pediatric endocrinology fellowship programs (Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, University of
Pittsburgh Children’s Hospital), pediatric critical care (Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Schneider Children’s
Hospital/LIJ Hospital), pediatric hematology/oncology (Yale University School of Medicine), pediatric
emergency medicine (Miami Children’s Hospital) and medical genetics fellowship (Children’s Hospital of
Pittsburgh).
PL-1 Internship: The Basics
The PL-1 year is designed to provide the intern with experience and education pertaining to all aspects of the care
of the hospitalized and ambulatory pediatric patient. It is essential that interns assume the responsibility for
patient care decisions with the supervision of senior residents and attending physicians. Through inpatient
rotations at St. Barnabas Hospital and the Hospital for Special Surgery, interns learn the diagnosis and
management of common pediatric problems. They also study the management of sick newborns at the St.
Barnabas NICU. The Well Baby Nursery rotation provides the framework for the year’s focus on general
pediatric care. Interns also actively participate in the Pediatric Ambulatory Group Practice, where they follow
their own patients throughout their three years of training. All PL-1 residents are assigned to one clinical location
(St. Barnabas Hospital Pediatric Primary Care Clinic, Pediatric Primary Care Clinic at Grand Concourse, Pediatric
Primary care Clinic at Union Community Health Center) where they serve as a resident primary care continuity
provider between 1 and 4 half days per week (depending on the rotation). The intern is identified as a patient’s
pediatrician and will follow that patient through all scheduled and, when possible, non-scheduled appointments
throughout their three year residency. Block rotations in the Outpatient Pediatrics and Pediatric Emergency
Department give interns a feel for the important link between the ambulatory and inpatient settings. Rotations in
Allergy/Immunology and Cardiology provide the necessary knowledge base for the resident to gain confidence in
managing problems in these areas. Finally, it is during the PL-1 year that the design and implementation of the
resident’s research project begins to take shape with the assistance of faculty mentors and core research
conferences.
PL-2 Junior Resident: Transition to Leadership
The second year allows the resident to take on greater supervisory and decision-making roles during two block
rotations on the Inpatient service and two block rotations in the Pediatric Emergency Department. Residents also
spend one block rotation on the Pediatric Oncology Service at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.
Management of acutely ill children is the primary focus of the rotation at the Children’s Hospital at Montefiore
Pediatric Intensive Care Unit. Ambulatory-based rotations in Adolescent Medicine, Child Development and
Neurology provide residents with the depth of knowledge they need to become well-rounded pediatricians.
Residents may spend one block rotation as elective time in any clinical or academic pursuit, in consultation with
the program director.
PL-3 Senior Resident: Independence and Teaching
Third year residents function as leaders among the housestaff and medical students at St. Barnabas Hospital. The
rotations in Outpatient Pediatrics and Community Medicine enable senior residents to become familiar with a
variety of settings outside of the hospital. There are also 2 block rotations of elective time that the resident can
use to supplement his/her core educational experience. It is during the third year of training that residents must
complete their research projects initiated during the PL-1 year and present their findings during the final Grand
Rounds of the academic year.
Ambulatory Group Practice: The Continuity of Care
Based on a resident’s training period of 10 one-half day sessions per week, all house officers spend between 1 - 4
sessions per week in Continuity Clinic (depending on specific year of training and rotation). The house officer
will longitudinally follow a cohort of patients through all aspects of well and sick pediatric care. All residents are
assigned to one of three locations for their pediatric primary care continuity clinic: the St. Barnabas Hospital
Pediatric Primary Care Clinic, the Pediatric Primary Care Clinic at Grand Concourse or the Pediatric Primary
Care Clinic at Union Community Health Center. All three locations are staffed by experienced full-time pediatric
primary care faculty who care for their own panel of patients in addition to serving as preceptors for residents.
Residents will also rotate through these same assigned locations while on the Outpatient pediatric rotations. Each
site gives the residents the experience of practicing in a supervised pediatric primary care practice – very similar
to one they may find themselves working in after graduation. The practices include an appointment system that
accommodates scheduled appointments and walk-in visits, as well as comprehensive on-site and telephone
coverage. Residents monitor their patient’s consultative visits outside of the clinic and any hospitalizations and/or
emergency room visits.
