Exhibit 5.1 GS Letterhead August 1, 2007 HC Innovations, Inc. Six Corporate Drive, Suite 420 Shelton, CT 06484 Gentlemen: We have acted as counsel to HC Innovations, Inc. (the "Company") in connection with its filing of a registration statement on Form SB-2 (Registration No. 333-144200, the "Registration Statement") covering 14,154,200 shares of common stock $0.001 par value (the "Common Stock") to be sold by selling security holder ("Selling Security Holder"). In our capacity as counsel to the Company, a Delaware corporation, we have examined the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws, as amended to date, and the minutes and other corporate proceedings of the Company. With respect to factual matters, we have relied upon statements and certificates of officers of the Company. We have also reviewed such other matters of law and examined and relied upon such other documents, records and certificates as we have deemed relevant hereto. In all such examinations we have assumed conformity with the original documents of all documents submitted to us as conformed or photostatic copies, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the genuineness of all signatures on all documents submitted to us. On the basis of the foregoing, we are of the opinion that: The shares of Common Stock covered by this Registration Statement have been validly authorized and will when sold as contemplated by the Registration Statement, be legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable. This opinion opines upon Delaware law, all applicable provisions of the statutory provisions, and reported judicial decisions interpreting those laws. We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the reference made to us under the caption "Legal Matters" in the prospectus constituting the Registration Statement. Very truly yours, /s/ GS Gersten Savage LLP
