Jordan Hospital (Massachusetts)
Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital-Plymouth (formerly Jordan Hospital, often shortened as BID-Plymouth) is a mid-sized non-profit community hospital located in Plymouth, Massachusetts. In 2022, the hospital had 187 licensed beds and reported 11,720 patient discharges and 42,367 emergency department visits.
In 1900, residents of Plymouth voted to establish a hospital in their community. The corporation formed to create the hospital received state charter the next year, and the hospital accepted its first patient in 1903. It was originally named Jordan Hospital in honor of Eben Jordan, a summer resident of Plymouth who donated $20,000 toward its establishment (equivalent to $732,480 in 2023). In 2013, Jordan hospital joined the Beth Israel Deaconess health system, and the next year was renamed Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital-Plymouth.
