Huntington Hospital, a member of Northwell Health, is a community and teaching acute care hospital located in Huntington, New York. It has 371 beds and is affiliated with the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell.[2]
Huntington Hospital was opened largely thanks to the work of Cornelia Prime who is considered among the town's greatest benefactors. In 1914 she purchased the five acre plot that the hospital still sits on and agreed to cover the costs of construction. The hospital was completed by around Christmas 1915 and its first patient was admitted in February 1916.[1]
