How You Can Help

Overview
Founded in 1948 by the pioneering physician Dr. Howard A. Rusk, the Rusk Institute of Rehabilitation Medicine was the world’s first facility devoted entirely to rehabilitation medicine. Today, as an integral part of the NYU Hospitals Center, Rusk remains the world’s largest university-based center for the treatment of adults and children with disabilities, as well as for research and training in rehabilitation medicine.

For eleven consecutive years, Rusk has been ranked the region’s top rehabilitation facility by U.S. News & World Report.
