Coney Island Hospital is a public teaching hospital located in the Coney Island neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York City. It is owned by NYC Health + Hospitals, a public benefit corporation of the city. The hospital is home to FDNY-EMS Station 43, formerly NYC-EMS Station 31, and is a major clinical affiliate for clinical clerkship with the New York Institute of Technology College of Osteopathic Medicine.

The hospital’s name was legally changed in 2015 to NYC Health + Hospitals/Coney Island, proclaiming a change “from a hospital-centric corporation to a healthcare delivery system.” The longer name was part of the parent body’s shortening of its name from New York City Health and Hospital Corporation.
