At Albany Med"},"content":{"rendered":"

Stewart\u2019s Shops and the Dake family have donated $500,000 to Albany Medical Center\u2019s new pediatric emergency department, recently named the Massry Family Children\u2019s Emergency Center.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Saratoga-based company and family were early supporters of Albany Med\u2019s latest project, helping it reach the $14.5 million mark toward the fundraising goal of $20 million, Albany Med officials said. The total cost of the project is $50 million. <\/span><\/p>\n

When it opens in the summer, it will be the only pediatric emergency department in northeastern New York and western New England, according to the hospital.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cStewart\u2019s and the Dake family are committed to ensuring that all our shops\u2019 communities are strong and healthy,\u201d said Susan Law Dake, president of the Stewart\u2019s Foundation. \u201cWe are happy to be part of Albany Med\u2019s commitment to pediatric health.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The Massry Family Children\u2019s Emergency Center will be exclusively for children and teens through 18 years old, and will be open 24 hours a day, seven days week, year-round. The four-story, 70,000-square-foot facility, which will be located adjacent to the current Emergency Department, is designed specifically for the needs of children and their families, and offers access to the full range of pediatric specialists. It will be staffed by physicians, nurses and mid-level providers specially trained in pediatric emergency medicine.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cFor many years, the Dake family and Stewart\u2019s have been stalwarts in helping Albany Med provide the best possible care to the families and children of our region. Their generosity, time and time again, has allowed us to create and expand programs as well as to plan for the future health needs of northeastern New York and western New England. We continue to be very grateful for their friendship and significant support,\u201d said James J. Barba, president and CEO of Albany Med.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since 1990, Stewart\u2019s and the Dake family have made gifts to Albany Med totaling more than $3.5 million. <\/span><\/p>\n

The company is also the lead sponsor of the Grow Our Own Fund in Nursing Education, a program that provides Albany Med employees with the financial and educational resources to become registered nurses. Their support has also allowed Albany Medical College to establish the Phyllis E. Dake Chair in Movement Disorders as well as the Phyllis E. Dake Endowed Neuroscience Fellowship. They have also funded the child life program at the Bernard & Millie Duker Children\u2019s Hospital at Albany Med through the Stewart\u2019s Holiday Match Program.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBecause of generous donors like the Dakes, the new children\u2019s ED will make the entire experience a lot easier for families and less frightening for children. And they will receive the specialized care they need from the region\u2019s only staff trained specifically in pediatric emergency medicine,\u201d said Dr. Christopher King, chairman of the Department of Emergency Medicine at Albany Med, adding that the new pediatric ED is the front door to the region\u2019s only children\u2019s hospital, the Bernard & Millie Duker Children\u2019s Hospital at Albany Med.<\/span><\/p>\n
