He has sharp, piercing blue eyes that dart around analytical environments, contrasted by a perennially unkempt five o'clock shadow and messy, thinning brown hair. He heavily favors worn-out sports coats, wrinkled button-down shirts left untucked, and faded jeans. He completely rejects white lab coats or formal ties. On his feet, he wears broken-in Nike sneakers to accommodate his severe right-leg limp. He relies on a variety of distinctive wooden canes to support his weight. Called as House.

Intro
The hospital appears to be a non-profit entity, essentially running as a charity with no shareholders. It's a teaching hospital, which means it's affiliated with a university medical school (although it has never been revealed which one, and Princeton University has no medical school) and is responsible for training medical students, interns, residents, and fellows.
The hospital's highest authority is the Board of Directors, which is primarily made up of department heads, together with important donors. Generally, the Chairman of the Board is one of the donors rather than one of the doctors. The current chairman of the board is Sanford Wells, the owner of a large corporation. The board generally does not involve itself in the day-to-day running of the hospital. Its chief duty appears to be to approve the hiring of chief administrative officers and approving contracts for major expenses, such as those with the hospital's insurers. The Board also determines which doctors are entitled to tenure in the hospital's role as a medical educator. The Board elects and dismisses its own members by majority vote of the remainder of the members.
Each department of the hospital has a department head, who is responsible for personnel decisions within the department and ensuring interns, residents and fellows are properly supervised during their medical training.

However, in Words and Deeds, House leaves his office and says he's going upstairs to the drug rehabilitation center at the hospital, implying that there are more than the four floors listed here. There's a fifth floor, at least. In Season 1 episode Maternity, the fifth floor is referenced as where they moved the healthy babies. Oncology and the Oncology ICU are on the fifth floor. The Buttons in the lifts indicate that there's a sixth and seventh floor although what departments or rooms they have are unknown.
