A Heritage of Healing
The almost two centuries of history surrounding Friends Hospital is rather remarkable considering our society’s tendency to discard the old in exchange for the new. But there’s something that has allowed Friends to survive, and even to thrive, regardless of age.
When the dream of Friends Hospital first entered the minds of its founders, throughout those nearly 200 years lasting until this very day there is a commitment and a dedication to serving, helping and healing our friends, our neighbors and everyone who is in need.
This dedication, this Heritage of Healing, makes Friends Hospital new each day. And while other behavioral and mental healthcare providers have come and gone, for those who need help, Friends remains as a beacon of hope. For those who are skilled caregivers and healers, Friends remains as a place to serve and to make a difference.
No matter our age, we at Friends Hospital strive daily to preserve and perpetuate this Heritage of Healing.
