On March 17 at 8 a.m., operations will cease at UR Medicine St. James Hospital’s 411 Canisteo Street (Hornell) location. All St. James clinical and non-clinical services will transfer immediately to the new facility at 7329 Seneca Road North (Hornellsville). This includes the Emergency Department (ED).
During the ensuing two weeks – through March 31 – St. James will collaborate with local emergency services agencies and will have a team of emergency medical services (EMS) providers at the Canisteo Street ED (Emergency Dept.) location around the clock, to evaluate and transport patients to the new ED on Seneca Road. SJH has contracted with the City of Hornell to provide emergency services coverage for the 14 days (March 17- March 31). City of Hornell Ambulance will provide an ambulance and two off-duty EMT personnel at the Canisteo Street location.
Additionally, the City of Hornell and other surrounding ambulance agencies (if needed, determined by City of Hornell Ambulance) will assist with inpatient transports and any other scheduled patient transports from the existing 411 Canisteo Street location.
