About Us

For more than a century, UofL Health – Shelbyville Hospital has served the people of Shelby and surrounding counties with high-quality health care. Founded in 1906 as Kings Daughter’s Hospital, the hospital continued to expand care and services at its Henry Clay Street location until 1954 when it opened a new, state of the art 70-bed facility on Hospital Drive. From its start, physicians and staff have focused on providing the best possible care close to home. Briefly managed and later owned by the for-profit United Medical Corp., of Orlando, Fla., the hospital was purchased in 1992 by Jewish Hospital HealthCare Services Inc. and renamed Jewish Hospital Shelbyville. In 2012, the hospital became part of a Catholic Health Initiative’s KentuckyOne Health. And in 2019, the hospital joined the newly formed UofL Health becoming UofL Health – Shelbyville Hospital. Colonel Harland Sanders stands tall at the front entrance to greet guests. In appreciation for a generous gift from the Canadian-based Colonel Harland Sanders Charitable Foundation, the hospital gave honor by naming the campus Harland D. Sanders Medical Campus.
