Dumont Center Expands Medical Coverage for Ventilator Patients

The Dumont Center in New Rochelle has added a new medical director and medical team with expanded coverage. This bolsters not only its growing short-term rehabilitation program but also its specialized ventilator care unit.

NEW ROCHELLE, N.Y. - Dec. 22, 2023 - PRLog -- The Dumont Center, a leading provider of rehabilitation and nursing care services, proudly announces the addition of Dr. Aleem Ali as its new Medical Director. Dr. Ali will play a pivotal role in advancing the facility's short-term rehabilitation program and bolstering its renowned Ventilator Care Unit, the largest of its kind in Westchester County.

For the past 25 years, Dumont Center's Ventilator Care Unit has been under the expert guidance of Respiratory Director Patrick Tierney. The program has consistently demonstrated excellence in managing acute respiratory issues through comprehensive ventilator care, tracheotomies, CPAP, and BIPAP. Notably, this month, the dedicated team successfully weaned and decannulated three patients who were initially in critical condition.

The Dumont Center's exceptional respiratory and medical team has earned recognition, tying for the highest-rated Ventilator Facility in the state of New York according to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).

Dr. Aleem Ali brings a wealth of experience to the Dumont Center, serving concurrently as the Director of Hospitalist Services and President of the Medical Staff at Mercy Hospital in Long Island. His commitment to patient care aligns seamlessly with Dumont Center's mission to provide high-quality and compassionate services.

Operating tirelessly, Dr. Ali and his dedicated team offer extended coverage during late nights and early mornings, ensuring enhanced support for all patients and, in particular, those receiving ventilator care.
