For more than a century, Fairview Hospital has been a safety net for the Great Barrington community, who appreciate the facility’s small-town feel combined with its regionwide network of care.

A 25-bed critical access hospital, Fairview offers inpatient medical services, general surgery, orthopedics, and maternity services with 24-hour emergency and hospitalist coverage. Fairview also provides a full range of ambulatory surgical services including general surgery, gynecology, orthopedics, urology, plastic surgery, ophthalmology and gastroenterology.

The facility is not just for acute care—it also offers outpatient ancillary diagnostic and therapeutic services; wound care and hyperbaric oxygen therapy; cardiopulmonary rehabilitation; and physical and occupational therapy services. In addition, Fairview’s primary-care-affiliated practices and clinics support the health and well-being of residents.

If more care is needed, Fairview can help navigate further support through its affiliation with the Berkshire Health Systems.

As a federally-designated Critical Access Hospital, Fairview Hospital offers short-term subacute care in its Swing Program. The program is offered by a multidisciplinary team of doctors, nurses, and a wide variety of specialists in an individualized program of care. Recently, specialized transition care programs have been added for patients with heart failure and COPD. Credit: Photos by Steve Donaldson

Partnering with local organizations, Fairview Hospital provides a spectrum of health and education services along with other forms of community outreach, including crucial vaccine clinics.

Especially in Covid-threatening times, it’s comforting to know that health assistance is right around the corner. And at Fairview Hospital, that means nationally recognized care, close to home.
