On September 12, 1906, the hospital that would become Greenwich Hospital opened its doors for the first time. From that day forward, our commitment to serving our community has never wavered - and while our services and facilities have expanded that never could have been imagined a century ago, we're still guided by that same sense of dedication.
Today, we're a JCAHO-accredited, 206-bed (including bassinets) regional provider of care proud to have been recognized for our leadership and achievements by many respected associations and publications. These accolades include:
