Organization Details
Founded in 1907, the Parker Jewish Institute is among the national leaders in geriatric medical education and research. Its commitment to conducting and promoting geriatric research distinguishes it from other long-term care facilities in the United States. Parker Jewish Institute serves as an innovator in the design of programs and service models needed to meet the challenge presented by the magnitude of the aging population.
Parker is New York's most extensive network of inpatient and community health care and rehabilitation services for older adults, serving more than 7,000 patients each year through its 527-bed center for skilled medical and nursing care, sub-acute care, adult day services programs, and hospice and home health services. Parker Jewish Institute is the first institution of its kind to provide total care for geriatric patients.
Parker has a long and distinguished history of serving family caregiver needs through its wide array of community- based programs. Parker also serves as a powerful advocate on behalf of older New Yorkers, working with a myriad of community organization members to provide needed services to older people.
