History

Syosset Hospital was founded in 1962. [3] It was designed by East Meadow-based architect Siegmund Spiegel and built at a cost of $4.5 million (1962 USD). [3] [4] [5]

In 1980, the hospital went from being a proprietary medical institution to a non-profit hospital, being take over by the Baptist Medical Center of New York. [6] [7] A major nurse's strike also occurred around that time that year, which temporarily closed the hospital. [6] [7]

In 1989, Syosset Hospital banned smoking at the hospital. [8]

In 1995, Syosset Hospital became a member of the North Shore LIJ Health System (now Northwell Health). [9]

During the COVID-19 pandemic, nurses at the hospital protested Northwell's decision to extend the temporary closure of the hospital's psychiatric unit; Northwell temporarily closed it in order to house additional patients during the pandemic. [10] [11] [12]
