Hillside Sanitarium was a private hospital that opened in 1926 and closed in 1931; their permit was revoked despite community support [1] [2] ( The New York Times headlined "Says Hospital Is Needed").
History
Hillside, which opened Jan. 4, 1926 [3] closed Aug. 15, 1931. [4] Although it was "conducted by Dr. Otto Gitlin," who ran it "for more than five years." [4] [1] it was not clear how well, and whether it should be allowed to continue.
Hearings
Opposition existed both from within and from regulators. Hearings held in June 1931 included presentations of a two years prior death; investigations did not stop with the closure. [5]
There was evidence that the local community wanted it to continue; authorities disagreed. [2]
