Additionally, despite significant damage to the Emergency Department, 嘿嘿视频 continues to work towards re-opening portions of this function as soon as possible. As part of the phased re-opening effort, approval by the New York State Department of Health (DOH) is required prior to resuming services and we continue to work closely with them throughout this process.
