The hospital offers state-of-the-art facilities including 19-bed ICCU (built in 2015), and technologies - Endobronchial Ultrasound, Navigational Bronchoscopy & more. Advanced imaging is offered at the hospital and at two outpatient ambulatory care centers, Wilton Medical Arts and at Malta Med. Our program offers a Lung Cancer Screening Center of Excellence at Wilton Medical Arts.  Wilton Medical Arts Imaging has been named a Screening Center of Excellence by the Lung Cancer Alliance (LCA) for its ongoing commitment to responsible lung cancer screening, one of only a handful in the nation to receive this honor.  The hospital's cancer services have been accredited by the Commission on Cancer (CoC) of the American College of Surgeons. The voluntary accreditation demonstrates that Saratoga Hospital meets the highest standards for quality of cancer care.
