Baystate Franklin Medical Center

That’s Baystate Health’s mission, and it drives everything we do. We started as one building—Springfield Hospital in 1883—and now encompass an academic medical center, two community hospitals, numerous outpatient and primary care facilities, a visiting nurse association and hospice, a regional reference laboratory, and a health insurance company. Baystate Health is now the largest regional employer in western Massachusetts, and one of the largest health systems in New England.
