The hospital gained its original name of Jordan Hospital due to a $20,000 (equivalent to $732,480 in today's dollars) donation by resident Eben Jordan. In January 2014, Jordan Hospital joined the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center family of hospitals and became Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital-Plymouth.
