Jishou People's Hospital was founded in September 1970. At that time, there were only two low-rise bungalows, dozens of medical staff and 20 beds to carry out some simple diagnosis and treatment work. After nearly 30 years of hard work, the hospital has made great progress and all its work has reached a new level. Provincial Health Department and National Health Bureau successively awarded the titles of "Civilized Hospital" and "Civilized Unit", and the president Lin Zhiyuan was awarded the title of "National Excellent Dean". 1997 was appraised by experts and approved by the provincial health department, which awarded it as a "second-class first-class hospital" and "baby-friendly hospital".
