Family centered care is the philosophy that guides the 128-bed Floating Hospital, which began in 1894 as a hospital ship, sailing Boston Harbor and encouraging mothers to participate in their children’s healthcare. Now anchored permanently in modern buildings in downtown Boston, the Floating Hospital offers a comprehensive range of services from prevention and primary care to the most sophisticated treatment of rare and unusual conditions. The hospital serves infants through young adults.
