The Association of the American Hospital of Paris was created in 1906 by several members of the American community in Paris. Their wish was to create a Paris-based hospital which would provide American expatriates residing in France with American-trained medical care in their own language, regardless of their financial means.
1913 年 1 月 30 日,美国国会正式承认巴黎美国医院,授予其联邦地位。
1918 年 3 月,为了表彰在第一次世界大战期间为法国提供的服务,法国政府下令巴黎美国医院为”公益机构”,授权其接受捐赠和遗赠。
January 30, 1913, the United States Congress officially recognizes the American Hospital of Paris, granting it federal status.
In March 1918, in recognition of services rendered to France during the First World War, the French government decrees the American Hospital of Paris to be “an institution of public benefit”, authorizing it to receive donations and bequests.
