Founded in 1900 by Dr. Newton Shaffer, Helen Hayes Hospital is the nation’s first free-standing, state-operated hospital dedicated to the treatment of individuals with physical disabilities. The hospital was initially established in response to a public health epidemic, providing treatment to children suffering from the ravages of tuberculosis. The facility was conceived not only to improve the physical health of the children but also to offer vocational and educational services that would enable them to lead productive, independent lives.
Helen Hayes Hospital promotes independence and health through high quality, cost-effective medical rehabilitation care with dignity and respect for all.
