The Jewish Hospital – Mercy Health
The Jewish Hospital (TJH) has provided Greater Cincinnati with exceptional healthcare for over 150 years. As the first Jewish hospital in the United States, TJH was established in 1850 as a result of a cholera epidemic. After being located in Clifton, Ohio for 147 years, the hospital moved all services to the current suburban Kenwood location in 1997.
The Jewish Hospital is a 200+ bed, tertiary care hospital that includes a 26-bed critical care unit, a dedicated inpatient oncology unit, an acute rehabilitation unit, open heart surgery, neurosurgery and an outpatient clinic. A new patient care tower housing orthopedics, neurosurgery, ICU, blood cancer center, outpatient surgery and emergency services opened in 2016. Additional expansions and renovations are currently underway.
