Official Facebook of Naval Hospital Jacksonville — our hospital and five branch health clinics across Florida and Georgia. Founded on July 1, 1941, our mission is to heal our nation’s heroes (active and retired military) and their families.
Naval Hospital Jacksonville’s priority is to heal our nation’s heroes— sailors, marines, soldiers, airmen, coast guardsmen—a mission since its founding in 1941. The command is comprised of the hospital, located aboard Naval Air Station Jacksonville, and five branch health clinics in Florida (Jacksonville, Key West, Mayport) and Georgia (Albany, Kings Bay).
The 2,400 active-duty and civilian staff do whatever it takes to deliver the highest quality, patient- and family-centered care. And with its community partners, NH Jax collaborates on a shared regional vision for safe, high-quality care.
The command—the fourth largest in Navy Medicine—serves nearly 85,000 enrolled patients and expands its capacity to treat 163,000 beneficiaries through robust partnerships with local hospitals and physicians in the TRICARE network.
NH Jax stands ready to support operational missions anytime, anywhere—from disaster relief to front-line combat care--and provides world-class medical care on the battlefield and on the homefront.
Naval Hospital Jacksonville’s priority is to heal our nation’s heroes (active and retired military) and their families.
