        NYC Health + Hospitals is ensuring that Bronx residents are safe to come to its hospitals regardless of their immigration status.
        NYC Health + Hospitals has made it clear they will not ask about immigration status from anyone visiting its hospitals for treatment. It took to X Thursday night saying "We want you to get the care you need today, before you get sick and before it becomes an emergency. All New Yorkers should seek care without fear."
        This comes more than a week after President Donald Trump's executive order for mass deportations. The administration also changed the longstanding policy to avoid ICE arrests at so-called safe places like schools, churches and community centers.
