Morton Hospital is a medical complex located on 88 Washington Street near Route 140 and Route 138 in Taunton, Massachusetts, USA. The facility serves the Greater Taunton Area and is equipped with its own heliport for medical emergency flights. Also, it owns a small rehabilitation facility down the street at Mill River Plaza. Morton is a part of Brown University Health, a non-profit health care system based in Rhode Island which took over the hospital in 2024 from Steward Health Care, its previous operator, which was forced to sell its Massachusetts hospitals following its bankruptcy.
