Be seen. Be safe. Be well. This isn’t our first pandemic. In fact, Jackson was founded during the Spanish flu outbreak of 1918. And even back then, our doctors and nurses took extraordinary measures to protect and care for the people of this community. Just like we’re taking extraordinary measures to protect and care for you now. So rest assured that there is no reason to delay care for you or your loved ones due to safety concerns. We’re here for you — as we’ve always been — committed to keeping you safe.
Jackson Health System is proud to be recognized as an “LGBTQ Healthcare Equality Leader” by the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Foundation.
