Baystate Noble Region

Baystate Noble Hospital (BNH) had its beginnings in 1893 when a wealthy local manufacturer, Reuben Noble, bequeathed a large portion of his estate to establish a hospital to care for the greater Westfield community, opening with 20 beds and eight physicians. Today, BNH is a 97-bed acute care community hospital that hosts approximately 400 primary and specialty physicians. Each year, there are an average of 150,000 outpatient visits to primary care, express care and hospital-based clinics, and lab and diagnostic imaging services. Some 30,000 patients visit to its emergency room and the hospital admits around 3,500 patients. Its physicians typically perform 400 inpatient and 1,000 outpatient surgeries each year.

BNH is committed to patients having access to exceptional health care, close to home. At BNH you’ll find an ideal combination of “high tech” and “high touch,” a staff of highly trained and compassionate nurses and medical support personnel that complements an outstanding medical staff.
