The Child Study Center facility (located on Webster Avenue at 176th Street)
has recently been modernized, including a new entrance with street level
access, as well as improved activities, counseling, treatment, and visitor
waiting areas. The opportunity to enhance Child Study Center programs was
made possible through a major gift from ARAMARK Corporation.
"The positive outcomes that our joint pediatric and psychiatry staff have
achieved in addressing such conditions as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity
Disorder, depression, school performance, and substance abuse are improving
the health of the community," stated Dr. Rendon,
When more specialized care is needed, patients and their families can be
referred to Bronx-Lebanon's pediatric health and specialty programs as well
as to crisis, inpatient, partial hospital mental health services at
Bronx-Lebanon (Fulton Division).

needs," stated Dr. Kairam .

community, and we will continually strive to provide the very best in
services for them," stated Dr. Rendon . |
