The Floating Hospital provides exceptional, compassionate healthcare to families in need. We provide care regardless of insurance status, immigration status, or ability to pay. We care for our patients as individuals with unique needs and goals. We offer education to help them self-care, now and for the long term. Our commitment is the same as it was more than 150 years ago: unrestricted healthcare to all who walk through our door. The Floating Hospital is NYC’s largest healthcare provider to families living in homeless and domestic violence shelters. With healthcare, a family can thrive. While we have provided all of our patient services from land-based facilities since the early 2000s, healthcare, relief, and prevention still anchor our mission.
