A legacy of compassionate, proactive care
SBH Health System is the oldest continuing health facility in the state of New York. For almost 160 years, we have partnered with people who live in the Bronx to build a healthier community and increase access to both vital services and resources that enhance overall well-being.
We believe that healthcare should go beyond just treating illness and disease. Instead, we create resources and programs that proactively address the diverse needs of our community and promote whole-person wellness. We focus on issues such as affordable housing, food insecurity, anti-violence and health education.
People make the difference
We believe every member of our community deserves the support and education to take charge of their health, their well-being, and their future. Everything we do is aimed at improving the overall health and quality of life for everyone in the Bronx.
For us, realizing this vision starts at the core of our organization – the people who make up the diverse workforce of compassionate health providers and staff. A truly community-centric approach to healthcare is only accomplished by a workforce that actually represents the racial and ethnic diversity of our neighborhoods.

Quality reflects leadership. And SBH has some of the most quality and diverse individuals leading SBH now and into the future.
