CMH is a community-owned, nonprofit organization governed by a volunteer Board of Trustees representing our service areas of Brunswick, Lunenburg, Mecklenburg and northern North Carolina.

• CMH provides comprehensive medical, surgical, behavioral, and long-term care services to meet the health needs of our citizens.
  
• CMH is licensed for 99 acute care beds, 161 long-term care beds and 24 behavioral health beds.
  
• As one of the area’s largest employers, we have more than 850 people on our staff, not including contract services.

We improve access to healthcare.

As a nonprofit hospital, we provide the health services that citizens need, many of which generate little or no revenue. Such services include a 24-hour, fully staffed emergency department, obstetrics, and physician-based practices and clinics in outlying communities to provide health care to citizens at a local level.

We make priorities of health education and wellness.

We focus on prevention as well as treatment to maximize the long-term health of our citizens. We provide health education and screenings and reach outside the walls of our facility. We continually strive to find new ways to keep people healthy and ways to return them to work more quickly after injury or illness. We partner with area schools, churches, and businesses in health and wellness activities.

We provide care to all, regardlessof their ability to pay.

During the past fiscal year, CMH provided over $3.7 million in charity care and nearly $9 million other uncompensated care.

We make tangible strides in providing new services to our community.

New facilities are here…new ways to help diagnose illness, to cope with injury and to make health care accessible locally. Plans are on the horizon to continue our growth. Our new facilities help where our community hurts most as our regions suffers significantly above the state average in areas such as cancer, heart disease, stroke and diabetes.

We strengthen the economic well-being of the community.
