Burke Rehabilitation Hospital

Opened in 1915, the Burke Rehabilitation Hospital has been a leader in medical rehabilitation for nearly 100 years. Located in White Plains, NY, Burke is a 150-bed acute hospital, entirely dedicated to rehabilitation medicine. The hospital provides inpatient and outpatient care for a broad range of neurological, musculoskeletal, cardiac, and pulmonary disabilities caused by disease or injury. Burke treats patients who have suffered a stroke, spinal cord injury, brain injury, amputation, joint replacement, complicated fracture, arthritis, cardiac and pulmonary disease and neurological disorders. Our intensive therapy regimens provide a minimum of three hours of physical, occupational and speech therapy per day. Other medical professionals such as respiratory therapists, social workers, audiologists, psychologists, pharmacists and dietitians round out the Burke rehabilitation team. Since 1968, Burke Rehabilitation Hospital has been affiliated with the Weill-Cornell Medical College through the Burke Medical Research Institute. Patients admitted to Burke Rehabilitation Hospital may also have the opportunity to participate in cutting-edge medical research for ongoing studies at the Burke Medical Research Institute. As both an acute rehabilitation hospital and research center, our medical staff and research scientists share the mission to ensure that every patient at Burke makes the fullest possible recovery possible.
