Historical Beginnings

New York Hospital School of Nursing

New York Hospital School of Nursing

The Society of the New York Hospital established the New York Hospital Training School for Nurses in 1877 at its second location on West 15th and 16th Streets.

At the new medical center, a beautiful nurses’ residence, which housed the school and living quarters for the students and nurses, was built.
