Jewish Hospital

The Jewish Hospital, located in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States, was the first Jewish hospital in the United States.[1] Officially named The Jewish Hospital, the organization was established in 1847[2] as a result of a cholera epidemic for treating the affected Jewish population of Cincinnati. The Jewish Hospital has earned accolades and distinction from various health ranking services, and is a former member of the Health Alliance of Greater Cincinnati, likewise a nationally recognized organization.
