"Caring Enough To Make A Difference"

Located in Clewiston, Florida, America’s “Sweetest City”, Hendry Regional Medical Center is Hendry County’s only acute-care hospital. For more than 50 years, HRMC has served the changing needs of the people here and in Glades County, with a spirit of caring and respect for our patients, visitors, physicians, employees, volunteers and friends.

HRMC is a county tax-district hospital offering a wide spectrum of healthcare services including 24/7 emergency care, inpatient and outpatient surgery, diagnostic services, physical and occupational rehabilitation, cardiac rehab, pediatric and women’s services.

Our physicians and highly-credentialed professionals, representing a wide range of medical specialties, have brought to our region a commitment to caring which is truly making a difference.

We are proud to be fully accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO). Accreditation recognizes our compliance with national quality standards intended to help achieve the highest level of performance, increase desirable outcomes and create an environment for continuous improvement.

Organization and Governance

HRMC is an acute-care facility licensed for 66 beds and operated by the Hendry County Hospital Authority, which was created in 1967, to acquire, construct, and maintain hospitals and hospital facilities in Hendry County.

The Authority is composed of five elected members (Board of Directors) who govern the Authority for four-year terms and represent each of the five districts of the county. The Board of Directors is the policy making body of HRMC and is authorized to levy an annual ad valorem tax upon all taxable property within Hendry County. Approximately 96% of the tax proceeds are used by HRMC to offset the cost of uncompensated care.
