In 1900, residents of Plymouth voted to establish a hospital in their community. The corporation formed to create the hospital received state charter the next year, and the hospital accepted its first patient in 1903.[2] It was originally named Jordan Hospital in honor of Eben Jordan, a summer resident of Plymouth who donated $20,000 toward its establishment (equivalent to $732,480 in 2023[3]).[4] In 2013, Jordan hospital joined the Beth Israel Deaconess health system, and the next year was renamed Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital-Plymouth.[2]
