Bridgeport Hospital is more than a building – it is a collection of people providing excellent care and their stories.

These stories are about dedicated physicians, nurses, physical therapists and other caregivers that provide high-quality and compassionate care.  They are about the support staff that makes the patient experience more comfortable. And they are about the many families and individuals that benefit from such kindness.

There is no time like the present to say thank you to the caregivers who made a difference in your stay. 

As a not-for-profit community hospital, Bridgeport Hospital depends on charitable giving to maintain and enhance the safe, high-quality services we deliver.  Charitable giving does not require great wealth. Please consider a gift within your means to the Bridgeport Hospital Foundation in honor of your doctor, nurse or another caregiver.

Thank you for your support; you are ensuring the future of quality care at Bridgeport Hospital.

Established in 1973, The Connecticut Burn Center at Bridgeport Hospital is Connecticut's only dedicated burn care facility in the state.  It is one of only 66 burn centers in the United States verified by the American Burn Association and American College of Surgeons, and is recognized by the American College of Surgeons and the American Burn Association for meeting the most demanding national standards of burn care.

The Connecticut Burn Center is one of our region’s signature medical services with staff and facilities dedicated solely to the treatment of burns. The Burn Center treats more than 200 burn-injured patients in-hospital and receives over 1000 outpatient visits each year. The facility underwent extensive modernization in 2012, including patient rooms and treatment areas and, thanks largely to philanthropic gifts from the community, the addition of an overnight Hospitality Suite for families of patients.

The Burn Center’s multidisciplinary staff includes fellowship-trained burn surgeons, nurses with specialized training in burn care, physical and occupational therapists, dietitians, social workers and other healthcare professionals and staff dedicated to the care of burn patients in the hospital and beyond. The burn center also offers support for burn survivors and families through affiliations with the Phoenix Society and the Arthur C Luf Children's Burn Camp.

Donate to Bridgeport Hospital's Reach Program

Changing the Face of Mental Illness in our Community for Children, Adolescents and Adults Struggling with Emotional, Behavioral and Psychiatric Issues

THE REACH PROGRAM offers intensive outpatient psychiatric and behavioral health programs for children, adolescents and adults. The program, open to all in the communities of greater Bridgeport, teaches clients how to identify and implement positive approaches to coping with intense moods and emotions that inhibit them from making the most of their capabilities.

Located at 1558 Barnum Avenue, Bridgeport, REACH serves over 1,000 children, adolescents and adults each year, from Bridgeport and the surrounding communities including Fairfield, Easton, Trumbull, Milford and Stratford.  It is the only program of its kind in our area.

The failure of insurers and managed care organizations to reimburse providers of mental health services for the costs of care has led to a crisis in access to these services.

Please help by making a donation today.

PCC Care Coordination

The Primary Care Center (PCC) is a vital safety net for underserved patients in the Bridgeport community. The PCC offers extraordinary high-quality holistic care to patients impacted by Social Determinants of Health.Personalized assistance, strategic case management, and if needed, complex disease management help patients control their health and improve wellbeing, reducing hospitalizations and episodic emergency room trips. Access to more than 18 multi-specialty services, that may not otherwise be available in the community, is available and barriers to completion of care plans are identified through screenings for Social Determinants of Health. Connections to additional resources in the community help lift barriers. The expert Primary Care Center team ensures that every patient has a clear path to wellbeing.

The Coronavirus crisis is creating unprecedented challenges for the underserved community. Because of robust proactive outreach to vulnerable patients by our dedicated Care Coordinators, patients receive access to telehealth visits; screening and education on COVID safety measures; and COVID supplies like masks and sanitizers. COVID positive and COVID suspected patients are monitored closely so they receive a higher level of care and treatment if needed.

Help our vulnerable underserved patients improve their wellbeing by donating here to give to the Care Coordination team at the Primary Care Center.
