JACKSON
IS PUTTING
PATIENTS FIRST!
DEAR FRIENDS,
I am extremely proud of our
healthcare team at Jackson
Hospital. Looking back at our
history, I have realized the
hometown heroes who came be-
fore us made this hospital what
it is today: the longest-standing
privately owned community
hospital in Montgomery.
This year we are marking
three very significant mile-
stones: Jackson Hospital will
celebrate 70 years of operation,
Jackson Hospital Foundation
will celebrate 40 years, and
The Jackson Clinic will celebrate
10 years.
The highest priority at
Jackson Hospital is putting our
patients first and treating them
with compassion. This is what
Jackson Hospital is known and
respected for. You have our
commitment to faithfully serve
the community, and we are
confident that our mission is
clear and will be accomplished
at Jackson Hospital and The
Jackson Clinic.
For those of you who have
made Jackson your hospital of
choice, we thank you.
Joe B. Riley
President and CEO
