Although FCPH struggled financially during the Great Depression, it managed to expand its facilities and recruit new medical specialists. In 1910, the hospital had raised an additional $65,000 in donations, enough to build a much larger facility on High Street. With $16,000 in community fundraising, the new hospital opened on September 9, 1895. The following year, citizens of Franklin County agreed to open Franklin County Public Hospital (FCPH). William Pierce and Ellen Brown rented a house at 6 Main Street and opened a private medical practice. It also includes pediatric inpatient services, child life specialists, an emergency room for kids, and outpatient specialty services.īaystate Franklin Medical Center īaystate Franklin Medical Center is a hospital in Greenfield, Massachusetts. Located on the campus of Baystate Medical Center in Springfield, Massachusetts, Baystate Children's Hospital, with 110 beds and 57 bassinets, provides complete critical care programs, including the region's only Pediatric Intensive Care and Neonatal Intensive Care Units. Baystate informed patients and stated social security numbers or financial or account information was not accessed in the scam. In August 2016, a phishing scam of Baystate Health employees may have compromised some demographic and clinical information of as many as 13,000 patients. On January 1, 2004, the governance structure of Baystate Health was further simplified with the establishment of a single board of trustees for Baystate Health that also serves as mirror boards for its patient care entities that had previously been governed by a separate board. To this end, a major corporate restructuring in 1997 reduced the number of governing boards across BH from twenty-one to six. In 2004, the Visiting Nurse Association & Hospice of Pioneer Valley, now renamed the Baystate Visiting Nurse Association & Hospice, became a member of Baystate Health. In 1986, Franklin Medical Center in Greenfield joined Baystate Health in 1999, Baystate Mary Lane Hospital in Ware joined the health system. The reorganization provided a legal framework for developing a future multi-institutional health care system and for reducing the assets that would be encumbered with the financing of a major new hospital building. In 1983, Baystate Medical Center was reorganized into three separate corporations: Baystate Health Systems, the parent corporation now renamed Baystate Health Baystate Medical Center and the for-profit corporation Baystate Diversified Health Services. The merger established Baystate Medical Center, then the second-largest hospital in New England, with 1,036 beds. In 1976, the Medical Center of Western Massachusetts merged with Wesson Memorial Hospital. In 1974, Springfield Hospital Medical Center merged Wesson Women's Hospital to create the 672-bed Medical Center of Western Massachusetts. 2.5.2 Current facilities and operations.
