The following information was retrieved from the Jackson Purchase Medical Center website concerning this unique hospital located in Mayfield, Kentucky: “Soliant Health, a leading specialty healthcare staffing provider and part of Adecco Group, is proud to announce the top 20 Most Beautiful Hospitals in America. Jackson Purchase Medical Center came in at number fifteen.”
“The design of Jackson Purchase Medical Center provides our patients, visitors and staff with a comfortable, pleasant environment. We believe that such an environment improves their overall experience and patient outcomes,” said Fred Pelle, C.E.O. Jackson Purchase Medical Center combines state-of-the-art equipment, advanced technologies, and a nurturing, friendly environment to merge the science of medicine with the art of healing” (JPMC Website).
Perhaps one of the attractions making the Jackson Purchase Medical Center the fifteenth most beautiful hospital in America is the addition of the Fitness Trail out front. This trail is an estimated one mile in length, making a picturesque loop around a small lake with scenic landscaping. This trail can be done as a side trip after hiking the much longer Kess Creek Park Trail in Mayfield. Hiking the Kess Creek trail is still on my “to do list.”
