CONCENTRATING ON PENINSULA HOSPITAL - RALLY THE TROOPS TO CALL & EMAIL DANIEL MCMURRAY

Thu, 2012-11-15 00:53 — Maeryn Obley

We are focusing on Peninsula Hospital located on Broad Channel Drive between 50 & 51st.

I left a voicemail for and sent an e-mail to Daniel McMurray whom I was told would be the best contact.  Apparently he works with the Bankruptcy Court and has the Peninsula Hospital case under his charge.  I have not heard back from him.  His phone # is 1-800-479-2455.  His e-mail address is ***@***.*** 

I initially called the main contact #718-734-2000 and spoke Denise Lobody who is the Director of Nursing in the Nursing Home which is still open.  It is she who suggested calling Daniel McMurray.

Peninsula Hospital as Possible Shelter? - located on Beach Channel Drive Between 50 & 51

Tue, 2012-11-13 07:59 — admin

It's been suggested that one of the recently closed NYC hospitals could possibly serve as shelter for the residents that will need to leave their homes.

The best option from the list might be Peninsula Hospital located on Broad Channel Drive Between 50 & 51. 

Apparently, there are related facilities in the hospital complex that are still open.  Can someone on the ground in the Rockaways please make their way over there to get the name and contact information of any adminstrator we can contact to see about using the hospital?  E-mail any information you gather to ***@***.***

Thank you!

http://www.peninsulahospital.org/  Closed permanently 4/09/12 after 104 years of dedicated service. Peninsula Center for Extended Care and Rehabilitation remains open.

Hundreds of elderly people in areas of Queens struck hard by Hurricane Sandy are stuck in high-rise apartments without food and water, according to Brian Lydon of East Hampton, who posted a report on East End Cares' Facebook page Saturday morning. This is just the tip of an iceberg of hidden devastation. There has been a lack of information provided to the outside world and minimal communication reaching the thousands who are suffering in cold, dark, conditions, Mr. Lydon said.

Misery is rising in a large building in the Far Rockaways, and many residents are either unaccounted for, or not responding to visits to their doors.

Unofficial reports by neighbors said that four residents in the 900-unit building have died since Hurricane Sandy, including a couple who expired from carbon monoxide poisoning after using their oven to stay warm. All of the deaths occurred in the first week after the storm.
