About Jackson North Medical Center
The $100-million modernization is complete and the result is priceless.
Jackson North Medical Center is new, inside and out. We’ve doubled the size of our emergency department and added a separate, designated pediatric emergency room. Labor and delivery suites have been refreshed to offer a spa-like atmosphere. Surgical suites have been outfitted with the latest technologies. And our Outpatient Rehabilitation Center has been upgraded with the latest equipment.
Inside, Jackson North also features a beautifully-updated lobby, reception area and dining center to complement our beautifully-updated patient rooms. While outside, the new Jackson North makes a great first impression with exterior designs courtesy of Arts in Public Spaces as well as an artistically-redesigned front entrance.
The finished hospital is miraculous, thanks in large part to the Jackson Miracle-Building Bond Program.
