  • Bellevue Hospital Center, founded in 1736 and most often referenced just as "Bellevue", is the oldest public hospital in the United States. It is best known outside New York City from many literary, film, and television mentions as "Bellevue," most always in reference to its psychiatric facilities. It is located in New York City and has been the site of countless milestones in the history of medicine. From the first ambulance service and the first maternity ward, to the development of the Polio vaccine, to the Nobel Prize winning work of Cournand and Richards in developing the world's first cardiopulmonary catheterization laboratory, Bellevue Hospital has been the training ground for many of America's leaders in medicine. Since 1968, it has been affiliated with the NYU School of Medicine. It is owned by the New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation and is open to patients of all backgrounds, irrespective of ability to pay. Lynda D. Curtis became its Executive Director in 2005. Bellevue is well known for its psychiatric facilities and as a triage center during disasters. Bellevue has seen many literary figures come through its doors, including the Beat poet Gregory Corso, and was portrayed in a number of motion pictures, including The Lost Weekend and The Sleeping City. Bellevue recently opened a new ambulatory care building dedicated to serving over 300,000 outpatients a year. Bellevue serves as a tertiary referral center for cardiac catheterization, catheter-based treatment of heart rhythm disorders, cardiovascular surgery, neurosurgery, physical rehabilitation, and Hansen's disease (leprosy). The leader of The Westies One Lung Curran visited the tuberculosis ward every week for a regular check up from the 1920s to 1950's. Bellevue recently opened burn units for pediatric (children) and adult burn patients. Bellevue also serves as a teaching hospital for the nation's most prestigious dermatology training institute at New York University. As the flagship facility of New York City’s Health and Hospitals Corporation, Bellevue handles nearly 500,000 outpatient clinic visits,100,000 emergency patients, and some 26,000 inpatients each year. More than 80 percent of Bellevue’s patients come from the city’s medically underserved populations. Today, the hospital occupies a 25-story patient care facility, with a state of the art ICU, digital radiology communication and a new modern outpatient facility. The hospital has an attending physician staff of 1,800 and a house staff of more than 1000.
