Letter from
the
CEO
DEAR FRIENDS AND
COMMUNITY MEMBERS:
A new year is underway, and it’s
already a busy and exciting 2014 at
Jackson Hospital.
Last year brought much growth,
specifically with The Jackson Clinic
and our new partnership with Rehab
Associates. We are proud of these
expansions, which help us to better
serve our communities.
We wrapped up 2013 with a
certification from The Joint Commis-
sion that recognizes Jackson Hospital
as a Primary Stroke Center. This is
great news for the hospital because
it confirms the commitment we have
always had to giving stroke patients
quality care.
This year, we are continuing to
enhance our surgical capabilities by
creating two new iSuites for spine
and cranial surgery. This computer-
assisted surgical technology from
Stryker will allow our doctors to
operate with more precision than
ever before. Jackson Hospital is the
first in the state to offer this level of
neurosurgical care. You can read more
about it in this issue of
Partners
.
Thank you for choosing Jackson
Hospital for your healthcare needs. I
wish you and your family good health
and prosperity!
Joe B. Riley
President and CEO
