History
In 1927 with the help of a group of local Jewish women led by Eva Blender Bella Doxer Fannie Bocholtz and Dora Lukatch Dr Moses Stone opened the Jewish Tuberculosis Sanatorium in Rutland Massachusetts as a non profit hospital to help those who could not afford to pay for medical care
Over the years health was restored to over 800 poor people who were victims of tuberculosis The sanatorium was a vital link in the battle to control TB providing modern therapies and pioneering the use of new drugs and surgical techniques It was one of the first places in the country to pioneer the use of streptomycin By the early 1950s the facility was experiencing growing pains and plans for a new hospital were under way In 1954 New England Sinai Hospital opened its doors in Jamaica Plain as New Englands sole charitable tuberculosis center As medical science progressed and new drugs made it possible to control tuberculosis Sinai directed its focus to the longterm acute care of patients with chronic diseases and those needing complex medical care
Again in 1967 the board was faced with the need for a larger facility Seeing a population shift to the south of Boston a decision was made to build a new hospital south of Route 128 With Development Committee chairman Archie Kaplan at the helm fund raising began in earnest Following the move to Stoughton in 1976 he served as president and chairman of the board
Today New England Sinai is a 212bed non profit longterm acute care LTAC hospital It is recognized as a premier regional specialty hospital delivering quality pulmonary and complex medical care as well as ambulatory services
Recognizing a growing need for outpatient rehabilitation services Sinai opened the Feldberg Ambulatory Care Center in 1992 Focused on patient care and convenience it offers patients the highest quality of specialized outpatient services and is home to the Richard A Field Diabetes Center the most comprehensive diabetes program in southeastern Massachusetts
