Northeast Georgia Medical Center Gainesville is a non-profit, 987-bed hospital in Gainesville, Georgia owned and operated by Northeast Georgia Health System.

History

Hall County Hospital, the predecessor to Northeast Georgia Medical Center Gainesville, opened on September 1, 1951, as a 90-bed hospital. The hospital's creation was the result of the merger of two existing hospitals: Downey Hospital, a private hospital founded in 1908 in the home of Dr. James Henry Downey, and the previous Hall County Hospital, a public hospital with an almshouse for the poor and elderly. Hall County Hospital underwent a $10 million expansion and was renamed Northeast Georgia Medical Center in 1976. In 2023, the hospital was designated as Georgia's fifth American College of Surgeons (ACS) verified Level I trauma center.

Northeast Georgia Medical Center Gainesville is a Level I trauma center and a comprehensive stroke center. The hospital also features a labor and delivery unit and a Level III neonatal intensive care unit. Northeast Georgia Medical Center Gainesville's campus is home to Laurelwood Behavioral Health, a 54-bed inpatient behavioral health facility.
