The Lutheran HealthCare system offers numerous health care and support services through several organizations that operate independently to provide specialty services as well as collaboratively to ensure that your care moves smoothly from one phase to the next. The Medical Center; the Family Health Centers network; the Augustana Center for Extended Care and Rehabilitation; Health Plus, our managed care program; our senior housing facilities; and our home care services, provide valuable comprehensive resources to those who live, work or visit in southwest Brooklyn.
When the Lutheran Medical Center was founded in 1883, it was for the sole purpose of providing care to its neighbors. Today, as the Lutheran HealthCare system, we remain steadfast to this basic principle while also providing increasingly complex medical care and social support to an increasingly diverse community.
I hope you will take some time to learn more about Lutheran HeathCare by exploring our website and, if you wish, sharing your comments with us by e-mail. I am sure you will be impressed with who we were, who we are now, and our plans for the future. We are extremely proud of the services we provide to our patients and community and we hope that we may be of help to you as well.
On behalf of the entire Lutheran HealthCare family, I wish you and your family the very best of health.
