Memorial University Medical Center (MUMC) is a non-profit, 530-bed tertiary care hospital in Savannah, Ga. We opened our doors in 1955 and have evolved into the most advanced healthcare provider in the region. We are a regional referral center for cardiac care, cancer care, trauma, pediatrics, high-risk obstetrics, and neonatology. Our hospital includes the region’s only Level 1 trauma center, the region’s only children’s hospital, and a state-of-the-art laboratory where scientists conduct research on the molecular genetics of cancer.
Memorial University Medical Center is part of the world-class Memorial Health system, a two-state healthcare organization serving a 35-county area in southeast Georgia and southern South Carolina. In addition to MUMC, our system includes physician networks, business and industry services, and NurseOne, a 24-hour call center. We also offer a major medical education program that provides residency training in diagnostic radiology, family medicine, internal medicine, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, and surgery.
In 2006, MUMC treated 267,000 patients from all over the United States and several foreign countries. We also trained 109 physician residents, provided clinical education for 81 medical students, and provided $85 million in charity care. Memorial University Medical Center is the largest employer in the region, with more than 5,000 Team Members.
Memorial University Medical Center has earned prestigious local, regional, and national awards. We have been named a Distinguished Hospital by J.D. Power and Associates four years in a row for providing an outstanding patient experience. Our patient safety, cardiac services, cancer care, and joint replacement services have also received accolades.
Memorial University Medical Center prides itself on being forward-thinking and proactive in healthcare public policy and patient safety. We are not content with “business as usual.” Our goal is to create a new standard for healthcare that will not only serve our current patients, but also change the future of medicine.
