Greater Waterbury has two major teaching hospitals, The Waterbury Hospital and St. Mary's Hospital, with a total of over 600 beds. Both are equipped with Level II trauma centers, have emergency helicopter pads and both are affiliated with Yale University School of Medicine. The Harold Leever Regional Cancer Center, a partnership between St. Mary's Hospital and Waterbury Hospital, is home to a collaboration of the outpatient cancer services and resources of both hospitals including: outpatient radiation and chemotherapy treatments, oncology consultations and patient and family support services. Services include: education programs, nutrition counseling and pastoral care.

Most recently both hospitals formed their second partnership to create The Heart Center, an advanced cardiac care program, offering patients at St. Mary's and Waterbury Hospital immediate access to a complete range of cardiac services, including angioplasty and open heart surgery. Approximately 400 licensed physicians in all major health fields serve the region's hospitals and clinics. Multiple ambulance services with trained paramedical personnel provide emergency services.

Today, more than 3700 of your neighbors and friends are hard at work caring for you, your family and our community. Both hospitals continue to expand their network of services, forging alliances with other key health care providers and exploring new ways to comfort and cure. The Orthopedics Center for Joint Reconstruction at Waterbury Hospital ranks in the top 5% for orthopedic care, garnering five star ratings for kip and knee replacement, back and neck surgery, including spinal fusion and overall orthopedic care.

St. Mary's has combined wellness and convenience through a wellness outpatient facility. The 5,500 sq. foot building is the new home of St. Mary's Outpatient Physical Therapy Center and includes Sleep Disorder Laboratories.

In addition, the Waterbury Region has numerous licensed residential care homes, nursing centers, assisted living facilities and retirement communities.
