PRISM: Envisioning the Future

The Medical Center is one step closer to building the Pediatric Replacement and Imaging Sciences Modernization tower, or PRISM, with approval from the New York State Department of Health to allow Strong Memorial Hospital to add more beds to its license. One of the Medical Center’s largest patient-care expansions in its history, PRISM forms a cornerstone of the Medical Center’s strategic plan. The 330,000-square-foot addition would house 56 beds for Golisano Children’s Hospital at Strong, an additional 56 adult beds for Strong Memorial, and two floors for imaging sciences— including a dedicated area for pediatric patients, as well as an expanded pharmacy and other support space.
