In the event you have to be in the hospital with a loved one during Succos, Chesed 24/7 has an updated list of the locations of succahs in various hospitals in Manhattan, New Jersey and Upstate.
Chesed 24/7 has also stocked each of their Chesed Hospitality Rooms with hot Yom Tov meals to be warm in their Shabbos warmer, snacks, drinks, hot water urns, and reading materials. Patients and their families are welcome to put their own Yom Tov food in the rooms’ refrigerators as well as the warming drawers. These rooms are open 24/7 for anyone who may need them. There are Chesed 24/7 rooms in the following hospitals: Columbia – Milstein Pavilion, Columbia – Babies and Children’s Hospital, Lenox Hill Hospital, New York Hospital Weill Cornell, Hackensack University Medical Center, Good Samaritan Hospital, Mount Sinai Hospital, Hospital of Special Surgery, NY Downtown Hospital, Englewood Hospital, Memorial Sloan-Kettering and Catskill Regional Medical Center (Harris Hospital).
