Two Brooklyn hospitals that are in danger of closing—Interfaith Medical Center and Long Island College Hospital—got some breathing room thanks to recent court actions, Crain's New York Business reported on Friday. The postponement of an Aug. 15 hearing to Aug. 26 means that Interfaith will stay open at least a few more days. Its closure plan had been scheduled to be reviewed by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of New York next week. Interfaith, based in Bedford Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, had intended to start its closing plan Aug. 15. That implementation will be delayed to Aug. 26, depending on the court's ruling.
