Founded in 1866, The Floating Hospital, is one of the last remaining charity hospitals in New York City. Our commitment is the same as it was 160 years ago: unrestricted healthcare to all who walk through our doors, regardless of identity, insurance status, or
the ability to pay. We welcome individuals of all ages, from infants, school-age children (5+), youth and adults. The Floating Hospital is a Federally Qualified Health Center and the largest provider to homeless families living in family shelters and domestic violence safe houses throughout all five boroughs.
