Rehabilitation and Human Performance

Since 1910, the Department of Rehabilitation and Human Performance at Mount Sinai has been dedicated to advancing human performance and solving barriers for those with disabilities. From sprains and strains to severe injuries affecting the spinal cord and brain, our world class specialists provide the highest level of evidence-based care. Our full-time faculty, affiliated physicians, nurses, therapists, neuropsychologists, researchers, social workers, and staff provide the highest level of team-based care to help patients achieve their goals.

With the introduction of new technologies, innovation, and policy reform, the landscape of healthcare is always changing. What is constant is our desire to improve the human condition. In the words of Hippocrates, "Wherever the art of medicine is loved, there is also a love of humanity."

Our Rehabilitation Center is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) for many of our programs across the continuum of care, including Brain Injury, Spinal Cord Injury and Stroke. We offer comprehensive and coordinated services in both inpatient and outpatient settings. The Mount Sinai Hospital is nationally ranked for Rehabilitation by U.S. News & World Report® for 2025-26.
