Your Center for Health Care in the Keys

Fishermen’s Hospital

On July 1, Fishermen’s Hospital became a completely community-owned and operated hospital, and your center for health care in the Keys. For the last 25 years, Fishermen’s was a leased, for-profit hospital. That meant that all revenues, after expenses, were sent to corporate shareholders. But with our new status, that money will stay in our community to upgrade technology, care, and the hospital itself. We will strengthen our community ties by investing in those services that best meet the health needs of the Keys. So, whatever health care service you or your family may need – from finding a doctor to lifesaving ER care – look to Fishermen’s first. Fishermen’s Hospital is committed to your health, our community, and patient- centered care.
