ON A MISSION | 2023 ANNUAL REPORT
OUR MISSION
To provide the highest quality medical care and rehabilitation services to ensure that each patient achieves the maximum functional recovery from illness, injury or disability.
Since our very beginning, more than 100 years ago, Burke Rehabilitation has been on a mission to provide the highest quality medical care and rehabilitation services. Our mission is more than just words on paper; it’s what we practice every day at our 150-bed acute rehabilitation hospital and 13 outpatient locations.
We leverage our expertise, embrace best practices, explore new avenues of treatment and adopt innovative technologies, combined with the Burke C.A.R.E.S. values, to maximize each patient’s recovery, independence and quality of life. One grateful patient said, “Burke is the place that gives you hope.”
We hope this annual report will help you discover more about the Burke Difference and how our whole-person approach to physical medicine and rehabilitation improves the lives of those we proudly serve. Some highlights from 2023 include:
• We were honored as one of the nation’s Best Rehabilitation Hospitals by the U.S. News & World Report 2023-24 rankings—only 50 hospitals are included on the prestigious list!
• Burke was recognized as having the lowest rehabilitation hospital readmission rate in the country
• We served over 2,900 inpatients and had over 155,000 outpatient visits, the largest numbers in our history; total operating revenue grew to $127 million
• Burke achieved record-breaking levels of: participation in our Graduate Medical Education program, philanthropic donations, and volunteer engagement
With clinical and technological innovation ingrained in our mission, Burke launched an Intensive Comprehensive Aphasia Program that is already demonstrating significant promise to people with asphasia, as well as expanded Neurologic Music Therapy to bring the healing power of music to more individuals. These are just two of the many innovations highlighted in this report.
Burke is also committed to closing the gap in social determinants of health—from food insecurity to transportation and equipment needs—to ensure that all our patients have what they need to recover fully and thrive in their homes and communities.
Of course, none of this would have been possible without our extraordinary workforce, which has grown to over 1,000 employees, including physicians, rehabilitation nurses, therapists, psychologists, case managers and other clinical and support staff. We are grateful for their dedication in making our mission a daily reality by providing patients, their families and caregivers with an exceptional experience.
The Board of Trustees recently completed a new five-year strategic plan designed to position Burke as a nationally recognized leader with an earned reputation for high-quality, individualized and integrated care. The future will undoubtedly hold new challenges, but we are confident we will succeed… because we’re on a mission

ON A MISSION TO Offer new hope to people with aphasia
Adults with aphasia—a language disorder that affects all aspects of communication—now have the opportunity to pursue intensive rehabilitation, beyond a standard course of outpatient speech therapy.
The Intensive Comprehensive Aphasia Program (ICAP) at the Barbara and Steven Kessler Aphasia Center at Burke helps people with aphasia restore their communication abilities in a concentrated language stimulation format, in small groups five days a week, four hours a day, for four weeks. ICAP members also engage in a weekly occupational therapy, neurologic music therapy, and canine therapy. Most importantly, activities in the ICAP are designed to maintain a focus on language recovery. A weekly support group at the Marsal Caregiver Center assists caregivers to reinforce therapy at home.
Launched in 2023, and the only one of its kind in Westchester Country, Burke’s ICAP successfully ran two sessions, with outstanding results.
Burke Speech-Language Pathologist Susan Wortman-Jutt, MS, CCCSLP, facilitated the Intensive Comprehensive Aphasia Program (ICAP) in October 2023. She was assisted by a New York Medical College Speech-Language Pathology graduate student.

ON A MISSION TO
Boost recovery through the joy of recreation
Burke’s Therapeutic Recreation & Adaptive Sports Program helps people recover physical, cognitive, emotional and social abilities essential to maintaining quality life.
One of the leading programs in the tri-state area, Burke’s recreational therapy works with more than 1,000 community members annually. We prepare them for real-life situations so that they can meet their recovery goals and return to activities they love. In addition to individual treatment, inpatient groups include expressive art therapy, humor therapy and stretch therapy. Our comprehensive program reaches people living in the community with any disability. Activities include golf, handcycling, hiking, kayaking and Zumba, and, new in 2024, cooking and hockey.
2023 HIGHLIGHTS
One of the program’s most exciting annual community adapted events is the Heels & Wheels Road Race. In 2023, more than 200 participants braved the chilly air and threatening skies to run, walk or handcycle the 5K loop, raising $25,000 to support the adaptive sports program.
Burke piloted an adaptive cooking program with Iona University’s Occupational Therapy Department, helping participants living with spinal cord injury use adaptive kitchen equipment to cook meals. Based on the program’s success, we will now offer it to the community.
Westchester Parks Foundation (WPF) honored Burke’s Therapeutic Recreation & Adaptive Sports Program and its director, Eileen Andreassi, with a 2023 Special Recognition Award for commitment to supporting people of all abilities. The award recognized Burke’s instrumental role in the development of WPF’s new adaptive hiking program, Trails Without Limits.

More than 200 participated in Burke Rehabilitation’s annual Heels & Wheels 5K and Fun Run. The event drew runners, walkers and hand cyclists to the White Plains, NY, campus.
ON A MISSION TO Bring the healing power of music to more people
Burke’s Neurologic Music Therapy (NMT) program uses research-based techniques to treat the brain through rhythm, melody, dynamics and tempo. Wide-ranging research shows the therapy helps people recover movement, speech, language and cognition.
The neurologic music therapist works with physical and occupational therapists and speech pathologists to augment their sessions, aiming to increase the efficacy of their interventions for each patient. Offered in collaboration with MedRhythms, Inc., Burke’s NMT program became full time in 2023, deepening and expanding its impact.
The program is made possible with the ongoing support of The Thomas & Agnes Carvel Foundation and The Charles A. Mastronardi Foundation.
By therapeutically applying music to the cognitive and sensory dysfunctions that stem from a range of disorders, patients are helped in a loving, joyful and noninvasive way.
— New York State Assemblywoman Amy Paulin, who has been a strong supporter of Burke’s NMT Program

ON A MISSION TO
Improve access and equity so all people can thrive
Where and how people live and the resources they can access have a vital impact on their rehabilitation. At Burke, we are committed to closing the gap in these social determinants of health to ensure that all our patients have what they need to recover fully and thrive in their homes and communities.
We took a number of steps in 2023 to improve health equity. Through a series of assessments measuring our patients’ social determinants of health, we identified key equity priorities where we can make meaningful changes in their health trajectories once they return to the community. Our action plan included:
• Addressing food insecurity among inpatients and outpatients
– Inpatient food drives with nearly 500 pounds of nonperishable items donated to a community food pantry
– 24 supermarket gift cards
• Addressing transportation and equipment needs to promote safe home discharge for inpatients
– Established in 2023, The Suzanne & Craig Packer Safely Home Fund provided equipment, transportation, medication and home health care services for more than 130 patients to return home safely
See p. 19 for more about the Fund’s meaningful impact
• Developing staff DEI education, including Grand Rounds
Burke participated in the Greater New York Hospital Association (GNYHA) Forum on Integrating Health Equity and Quality.
Our mission is to provide equitable care so all patients—irrespective of gender, race, religion, social or economic status— have a fair and just opportunity to attain their highest level of health. This is not just a thought in the moment but rather a movement.
— Pauline Jones, Assistant Vice President Nursing Services; Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) leader at Burke
Oscar
Patient Oscar made a remarkable recovery while at Burke Rehabilitation Hospital. The 36-year-old had developed a rare immune system disorder. When Oscar arrived at Burke, he couldn’t move. Six weeks later, he walked by himself, and he even boxed during an occupational therapy session. Oscar reflected on treatment at Burke.
“I feel good. I remember my first day when I started to walk; it was 10 inches, now it’s more than 10 feet.”

ON A MISSION TO
Advance the science and medicine of rehabilitation
Motivated by patients and working at the forefront of clinical care, Burke’s clinician researchers advance the understanding and practice of rehabilitative medicine, publishing discoveries in leading peer-reviewed journals and presenting to conferences nationally and internationally.
2023 HIGHLIGHTS
• Mooyeon Oh-Park, MD, MHCM, Burke’s Chief Medical Officer, received the Outstanding Service Award from the Association of Academic Physiatrists
• Publications included studies on:
– Responsiveness of functionality at admission predicting outcomes after discharge
– Effect of resistive exercise on cognition
– Impact of caregiver preparedness

RESEARCH & INNOVATION
ON A MISSION TO
Tailor care for individuals as they age
To best meet the distinctive needs of older patients, Burke joined the Age-Friendly Health Systems initiative created by the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI)—a national group of 3,000+ health systems tailoring care to older patients’ goals and preferences.
The movement focuses on delivering safe, reliable, high-quality healthcare to older adults in every setting by paying close attention to what matters most to each individual, based on their health conditions and goals of care.
The initiative amplifies what Burke does every day: design expert care around each individual’s needs and goals. As an Age-Friendly Health System, we can assess gaps and enhance care around four essential elements, the 4Ms.
Burke is the only free-standing rehabilitation hospital in NYS to achieve the Level 2 Age-Friendly Healthcare Systems designation, Committed to Care Excellence.
ON A MISSION TO Prevent falls through innovative technology
Falls are the leading cause of injury for older Americans. To advance falls research and lead prevention, Burke is partnering with an innovative technology that assesses falls risk in adults 65+ and provides physicians with targeted therapy recommendations for their patients.
CatchU®, a digital health app, was developed by Jeannette R. Mahoney, PhD, Associate Professor of the Department of Neurology at Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Older adults from Burke’s fitness center and outpatient network are eligible to participate in the collaborative research study. The study’s main objective is to quantitatively assess fall risk through a 10-minute multisensory assessment. The results are sent to the study investigators as well as the participants’ physicians for therapeutic recommendations and fall counseling in accordance with the CDC STEADI (Stopping Eldery Accidents, Deaths & Injuries) guidelines.
Current assessments of falls in older adults are often subjective. The CatchU app provides quantitative markers that are significantly linked to fall risk in aging.
— Dr. Jeannette R. Mahoney, CatchU Principal Investigator

ON A MISSION TO Train the next generation of physiatric leaders
As a longstanding leader in clinical care, research and innovation, Burke shapes the future of rehabilitation medicine through a nationally recognized Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R) Graduate Medical Education Program.
OUR GME PROGRAMS
Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Residency Program
Our residency program in PM&R and two fellowship programs uphold the highest standards in medical and physiatry education as we train the next generation of leaders in physiatry and specialty areas, and share knowledge and skills with colleagues, residents, students, patients and the community we serve.
GME faculty are highly qualified, experienced specialists at Burke Rehabilitation, Montefiore Medical Center, Jacobi Hospital (Level I Trauma Center), White Plains Hospital orthopedic, spine and pain clinics, and private sports medicine clinics. We draw exceptional medical students by maintaining a strong reputation in rehabilitation medicine and aligning our educational program with residents’ interests and goals.
Our training program seeks to empower residents to achieve academic, clinical, professional, and personal success in residency and beyond.
Haris Choudry, MD, MPH, Burke Program Director PM&R Residency
With Albert Einstein College of Medicine as its academic partner, Burke’s three-year advanced PM&R Residency trains physiatrists to deliver the latest in rehabilitative medicine with compassion, competency and leadership across the healthcare system. Rotations include inpatient and outpatient care at Burke, urban clinical care at Montefiore Medical Center, and care at specialty clinics. Burke recently received ACGME approval to increase its annual cohort from six to eight residents.
I chose physiatry because it reconciles my passion for neuroscience and medicine while providing the opportunity to engage with the community and maximize my patients’ quality of life.
— Dr. Tiffany Ezepue, MD, Resident

Medical Student Education
Under the leadership of Dr. Sharon Bushi, Director of Medical Student Education, Burke hosted its inaugural PM&R Medical Student Fair in 2023. Forty students from 11 medical schools and Burke faculties, residents, fellows, nurses, therapists, and social workers attended the event. Burke will host more Einstein medical students as part of a Neurology Clerkship in 2024.
Brain Injury Medicine Fellowship
Each year we train one to two physiatrists or neurologists who are passionate about and committed to subspecialty training in brain injury medicine. During the one-year ACGME-accredited fellowship, they rotate at Burke’s main campus and other institutions affiliated with Albert Einstein College of Medicine. This allows for broad exposure to the spectrum of care for patients with a range of severity in brain injury.
My interest in Brain Injury Medicine was inspired by my experiences treating TBI and stroke patients as a resident, as well as my desire to give back to veterans who have suffered from brain injuries.
—Dr. Hameer Thatte, DO, MPH, MS, Brain Injury Fellow and officer in the Air National Guard
Sports Medicine Fellowship
Each year we train two physiatrists in the spectrum of care for youth with sports injuries to master athletes, concussion, musculoskeletal disorders, individuals with medical illness or disabilities, adaptive sports athletes, emergent medical issues related to sports participation, acute surgical and non-surgical orthopedic conditions, on-field game coverage, and follow-up after injuries on the field.
I was drawn to Sports Medicine due to my love of musculoskeletal medicine, ultrasound, and working with athletes from all walks of life.
Dr. Lauren Bartels Marzuillo, DO, Sports Medicine Fellow

Burke held an inaugural PM&R Medical Student Fair in collaboration with Albert Einstein College of Medicine in November 2023 on the White Plains, NY, campus.
ON A MISSION TO Extend learning opportunities in caring for medically complex adults
Burke’s Externship and Internship Programs train specialized care providers who want to work with neurologically and medically complex adult populations, and bachelor’s degree candidates interested in rehabilitative fields.
Summer Student Health Experience Learning Program
College students with a demonstrated interest in rehabilitative therapy can gain hands-on experience through Burke’s paid summer student Health Experience Learning Program (HELP). In 2023, students pursuing physical, occupational or speech therapy after college trained through HELP as rehabilitation aides and transitioned to per diem aides following the summer.
Nursing
Nursing students entering the final year of a Bachelor of Science program gain hands-on experience while learning in a supportive, collaborative environment as paid Student Nurse Externs. In 2023, students from nine local colleges and universities trained alongside Burke nurses. They learned about post-graduate employment, and collaborated on an impressive Diversity, Equity and Inclusion presentation. While the program benefits students and contributes to the profession’s future, it is also invaluable for Burke, which receives help in nursing care during summer vacation months and gains a vital next-generation perspective.
Psychology
Burke’s Psychology Externship program provides intensive training to pre-doctoral psychology candidates who want to work with neurologically and medically complex adult populations. Across inpatient and outpatient settings, psychology externs receive hands-on experience under the supervision of licensed clinical psychologists. Burke Rehabilitation Hospital offers clinical rotations as part of the Montefiore Psychology Internship program. Candidates with a strong interest and prior experience in neuropsychology can work with neurologically and medically complex patients as part of a multi-disciplinary inpatient treatment team.
14
EXTERNSHIPS & INTERNSHIPS
College students from across the nation participated in Burke’s Health Experience Learning Program (HELP) during the summer of 2023 where they shadowed Burke Rehabilitation Hospital therapists.
Burke Rehabilitation Hospital welcomed nursing students to our campus in May 2023 to work alongside the nursing team.
ON A MISSION TO
Care for our community—and our planet
As a partner focused on the health and wellbeing of our people, community and planet, Burke Rehabilitation is committed to reducing its carbon footprint across everyday and long-term actions, including:
Cogeneration
For fifteen years, Burke’s cogeneration efforts have created energy savings, reused waste heat, and reduced greenhouse gases. Burke’s cogeneration plant creates half the hospital’s electrical demand on peak days, utilizing waste heat from the engines to heat domestic water and increase cooling capacity in summer.
LED Lighting
Burke has been replacing high-energy light fixtures with LED fixtures over several years, reducing electrical consumption. Today, Burke lights half of its main campus with LED technology. All new outpatient site renovations and construction are designed wtih LED lighting and daylight controllers to reduce consumption further.
Water Savings
Automatic water dispenser installation began in bathrooms during the COVID-19 pandemic as an infection control method. The dispensers have helped conserve water. Most of the main campus and outpatient facilities use these dispensers.
SAVINGS: $380,000 A YEAR IN UTILITY COSTS
CARBON SAVINGS: EQUAL TO REMOVING 2,600 CARS FROM THE ROAD
Other Burke sustainability efforts include:
• 100% paperless Electronic Medical Record
• Paper-reduction projects such as “Go Green, keep it on Screen.”
• Meeting or surpassing sustainability milestones on food and beverages for patients, visitors and employees
• Responsible supply chain practices
• Purchasing ENERGY STAR appliances
• LEED-certified construction projects
• Collaboration with environmentally responsible vendors
15 SUSTAINABILTY
ON A MISSION TO Keep our community healthy and safe
While Burke’s home county of Westchester is overall healthier than the state average, it has a disproportionately high rate of falls among seniors, especially in underserved communities.
With falls as a leading cause of injury and hospitalization among older adults, Burke Rehabilitation partnered with White Plains Hospital to offer three Falls Prevention Assessment Days for seniors throughout 2023.
A physical therapist and medical provider screened each participant for their falls risk using the CDC’s STEADI program algorithm. They also educated participants about falls prevention, and offered referrals to healthcare providers to reduce risks.
The majority of participants reported that they did not fall three months post-assessment.
The falls prevention program is an important part of Burke’s longtime commitment to community health and the wellbeing of our most vulnerable neighbors. Every three years, Burke looks at local health needs and creates a responsive service plan to improve health county- and community-wide, especially in underserved areas, by working closely with community partners.

ON A MISSION TO
Ensure a safe transition home for every patient
The goal at Burke is for every patient to return home safely and lead the most fulfilling and independent life possible.
For vulnerable patients, essential elements of a successful transition can remain out of reach— an ambulette ride home, safety and medical equipment, medication copayment, and proper clothing for therapy.
The Suzanne & Craig Packer Safely Home Fund was established to help our most vulnerable patients safely transition home. It also ensures that financial need is never a roadblock to a successful rehabilitation.
The Fund helps patients who are uninsured, underinsured, or face other barriers to health. Grants can cover transportation, essential medications, home services, medical equipment, supplies, food gift cards, clothing and shoes.
