Somerville’s hospital campus is the CHA Somerville Campus on Highland Avenue, run by Cambridge Health Alliance.

For a full hospital, CHA Cambridge Hospital is on Cambridge Street, just over the city line. Bus 85 runs from Union Square through Kendall Square to the Longwood Medical Area, where Boston’s big teaching hospitals are. There is home care work too, with aides and companions visiting residents in their homes across Somerville.
