Mission:

Blythedale Children’s Hospital is dedicated to improving the health and well-being of children.

We accomplish this in four ways:

Patient Care – Blythedale is a national leader in the diagnosis and treatment of children with disabling and complex medical conditions.

Research – Blythedale is a research center dedicated to discovering ways of improving the care of children with special needs.

Advocacy – Blythedale advocates tirelessly at the federal and state level, to ensure that the highly specialized needs of all children are met.

Teaching – Blythedale trains the next generation of health care professionals in diagnosis and treatment of children with complex medical needs.

We serve children without regard to religion, race or ability to pay. Although we treat children from any locality, we consider the greater New York metropolitan area, Hudson Valley and Connecticut to be our primary communities.

Vision:

To serve as the pre-eminent children's rehabilitation hospital in the Northeast, serving higher acuity patients with a variety of special healthcare needs, through superb medical, psychosocial, teaching, research and advocacy programs.
