The Teaching Hospital
As a teaching hospital, Brookdale is dedicated to training new physicians.
Brookdale's House Staff is comprised of graduate doctors, physicians who already have their medical degrees and are receiving further training in a specialty. Residents are in the initial phase of postgraduate training, and fellows in the process of obtaining more advanced specialty training.
Patients who live in the Brookdale community gain yet another advantage by living near a teaching hospital. Most of Brookdale's graduating residents and fellows go into practice in our area, adding to the medical resources the community can draw on. And much of Brookdale's research focuses on the serious medical issues the community faces, such as heart disease, hypertension or breast cancer.
The Marie Smith Schwartz Medical Library contains an extensive collection of books and journals. The professionally staffed library also offers audiovisual materials, computer-aided instruction on a variety of clinical disorders, reference and bibliographic searches, both mediated and end-user on-line access to National Library of Medicine-MEDLAR databases, interlibrary loans, and photocopy services. Located on the main floor of the Samuel and Bertha Schulman Institute for Nursing and Rehabilitation, the library is open from 9AM - 7PM, Monday to Friday with 24 hour access for residents with photo ID.
