Get the best of both worlds at South Shore Health

South Shore Health is the region’s largest independent community health system.

You may know us through South Shore Hospital, the region’s leading provider of emergency, acute, and outpatient care.

You may know us through South Shore Medical Center, a primary care practice that serves tens of thousands of patients across the region, or through our Home Care Division.

South Shore Health is more than just a single entity: we’re a comprehensive health system offering acute care, primary care, specialty care, home care, urgent care, and advanced surgical and diagnostic services.

We’re proud to be the first place our family members, friends, and neighbors turn to for care – but unlike many community health systems, we’re also able to connect you with local care for complex concerns.

Thanks to relationships with Boston Children’s Hospital, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and others, we’re able to connect you with Boston-level services without driving all the way up Route 3.

From knee replacement to high-risk pregnancies, stitches to community exercise programs, we’re here for you.

We invite you to rediscover South Shore Health – you might be surprised by what you find.
