History
Our History
In 1922 a medical social worker named Hortense Kahn Eliasberg sought to open a home where children could recuperate from illness and surgery

Thanks to her efforts the Happy Hills Convalescent Home for Children opened later that year in a colonialstyle house in northwest Baltimore

Over the next 80 years Happy Hills underwent several dramatic changes including the construction of a modern facility three name changes and a marked shift in the types of conditions and patients it treated

Today those who work at Mt Washington Pediatric Hospital remain committed to the mission Hortense Kahn Eliasberg established so many years ago improving the health and well being of all children who are ill injured or in need of help
