CEO's Message: James M. Johnson


Welcome to the Franklin Hospital District website!

I am proud to serve as the Hospital CEO since 2016 and have thirty-five years of healthcare experience.

Since 1955, Franklin Hospital has been serving the healthcare needs of our community. We have an outstanding staff, administration, auxiliary, and board of directors committed to providing high-quality and compassionate care. While healthcare has faced and continues to deal with many challenges, we are dedicated to continually improving in all areas.

The hospital has expanded its services, upgraded its facilities and equipment, partnered with other healthcare organizations to provide a wide array of specialty services, and partnered with a new medical group, Integritas, for the Emergency department. We have also obtained and opened the Medical Services building adjacent to the main hospital to provide additional space to serve our patients.

As we prepare for future opportunities and challenges, Franklin Hospital is committed to doing the best we can to serve our community with excellence and provide "quality healthcare, close to home." We are pleased you have chosen to visit us today and explore our services. Please feel free to contact us anytime with any specific questions you might have. We are here to serve you.
