Officials of the Cedars of Lebanon Hospital and Mount Sinai Hospital announced the completion of the merger today of the two institutions to create the largest voluntary hospital in the west.
The principal goal of the merger is the establishment of a unified medical center of at least 1, 000 beds to provide comprehensive services for patients of all age groups on a non-sectarian basis. Steve Broidy, immediate past president of the Jewish Federation-Council of Greater Los Angeles, was elected president of the Cedars of Lebanon-Mount Sinai Hospitals.
