The AHS Sherman Medical Center (formerly known as the Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital–WNJ and Wilson N. Jones Regional Medical Center) is a hospital in Sherman, Texas. Named for the Choctaw chief Wilson Nathaniel Jones (1827-1901), it has 237 beds,[1][2] and employs 1000 staff.[3] It was established in 1914.[3]
In 2014, Alecto Healthcare Services acquired the hospital from Texas Health Resources.[2][3]
