From “The Way Forward" Conference: Dr. Stephen J. Corwin, President and CEO, New York-Presbyterian
Dr. Stephen J. Corwin, Sharmini, Dr. Steve Corwin
During the unprecedented first wave of the pandemic, New York Presbyterian Hospital, under President and CEO Dr. Steve Corwin, treated over 2,700 COVID-19 patients while grappling with severe supply chain shortages and a psychological toll that resulted in the suicide of a physician leader. Facing a projected financial loss exceeding $1 billion and an estimated 20% in-hospital mortality rate, the institution is now expanding ICU capacity to 900 beds and securing a 60-day PPE stockpile to prepare for a potential second wave. Despite Dr. Corwin's pessimism regarding vaccine availability before early 2021, the hospital is refining novel staffing models and supporting peer networks to ensure resilience against future surges in New York and emerging epicenters.
