For Chinese Patients




We're Dedicated to the Chinese Community.

We've had the pleasure of serving New York's Chinatown community for more than 30 years, and we are committed to continually enhancing services to our Chinese patients and their families.

At St. Vincent's Hospital Manhattan, many of our physicians and nurses speak Cantonese and Mandarin.  In addition, we employ certified medical interpreters to serve patients and their families in the emergency department as well as on the different units.  In addition, we offer a free shuttle service from Chinatown to the hospital and back.  Please click here for the schedule.

St. Vincent's Living at Home Program
Since 1987, St. Vincent's Living-at-Home Program has been taking teams of Chinese-American doctors, nurses and social works into the homes of frail, homebound aged Chinese in Chinatown. This program, which began with grant funding and has continued with philanthropic support, has cared for some 160 monolingual Chinese men and women over the past several years.  For information, please call our Chinese Patient Access Line: 212-604-3720.
