The flagship of West Tennessee Healthcare is a 642-bed tertiary care center. (Map of Medical Center) The only tertiary care hospital between Memphis and Nashville, the hospital serves a 17-county area of rural West Tennessee. Approximately 400,000 persons reside within the service area. Within General Hospital, there exist six ‘centers of excellence’: the West Tennessee Heart and Vascular Center, Kirkland Cancer Center, West Tennessee Women’s Center, West Tennessee Neuroscience and Spine Center, and Emergency Services. Each center has a historic reputation of ‘high-tech, high-touch’ skills.
General Hospital, like all affiliates within West Tennessee Healthcare, is a not-for-profit organization. Totally self-supporting, without need for local tax support, all revenues generated provide for overhead costs including employee expense, debt service, purchase of technology, renovation, expansion, creation of new services, and, most importantly, maintaining the low-cost structure for which General Hospital is well known. Opening August 11, 1950, as a 123-bed community hospital to serve Jackson-Madison County’s Hospital needs, the facility has become one of Tennessee’s most respected healthcare sites.
