MONTEFIORE HOUSING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES<br />

Due to increased demand for staff housing the following occupancy and lease policies are<br />

effective as of this date for all <strong>Montefiore</strong> housing:<br />

• The units are available only to those employees of the medical center who are in residency or<br />

fellowship programs approved by the Accreditation Council for Graduate <strong>Medical</strong> Education<br />

or employees who are in the Surgical Physician Assistant Training Program.<br />

• <strong>Montefiore</strong> employees other than house officers, fellows or physician's assistants referred to<br />

above currently residing in staff housing may continue to lease their current apartments as<br />

long as they are employed by the medical center.<br />

• <strong>Montefiore</strong> employees who have terminated or will terminate through retirement or<br />

permanent disability prior to July 1, 1996, while tenants of <strong>Montefiore</strong> staff housing, will be<br />

eligible for lease renewals in accordance with the terms and rents established by <strong>Montefiore</strong>.<br />

• <strong>Montefiore</strong> employees who terminate by reason of retirement or permanent disability after<br />

July 1, 1996, who at the time of termination are tenants of <strong>Montefiore</strong> staff housing, may<br />

remain in their units no longer than six (6) months after the date of termination.<br />

While individuals may request a particular building or size of apartment, no assurance can be<br />

given that such a request can be met. Due to the shortage of apartments, it has been necessary to<br />

establish priorities for the assignment of housing.<br />

First priority for housing will be given to incoming <strong>House</strong> <strong>Staff</strong>- First Year Residents<br />

arriving from long distances. Proof of your current residence must be given to the Housing<br />

Office. Whenever possible, the first year residents will be assigned housing at MH-I, MH-II.<br />

After the needs of these residents have been satisfied, any apartments that may still be available<br />

will be assigned in the following order:<br />

• Second year residents (According to distance)<br />

• Physician Assistants – For internship year only<br />

• Fellowship programs approved by the Accreditation Council for Graduate <strong>Medical</strong><br />

Education.<br />
