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 />
