Burke Rehabilitation Hospital, through its affiliation with the Montefiore Health System, offers acute rehabilitation programs and services to patients from all around the world. Patients who are in New York to receive treatment or who are undergoing surgery at one of the Montefiore-affiliated hospitals can, if medically appropriate, receive rehabilitation at Burke following discharge. Montefiore has a dedicated team of experts who can help patients navigate the process, such as travel and interpreter services. Their expertise helps take the burden off the family when a health crisis arises.
When available, Burke offers on-campus accommodations for international patients and their families with a full kitchen, bathroom and more. If no accommodations are available, there are various hotels in the area that offer a Burke discount.
