The hospital is an 867-bed regional referral center that provides high-quality care in all clinical disciplines. Among its divisions is The Institute of Living, a 114-bed mental health facility with a national and international reputation of excellence. Jefferson House, a 104-bed long-term care facility, is also part of Hartford Hospital.
The hospital’s active medical staff includes more than 1,280 physicians and dentists. In 2017 the hospital had over 41,000 discharges and over 104,500 emergency department visits. It performed over 43,000 surgeries and delivered 3,734 babies that year.
