"The hospital serves the West Side and Lower Manhattan from Chinatown and Battery Park City up to the West 50s. It is also the only regional trauma center below 114th St. on the West Side. Last year, St. Vincent’s gave over $36 million in charity care, and its emergency department saw 61,368 visits. The hospital also provides critical AIDS/H.I.V. treatment, geriatric care and mental-health services."
