In addition to the Hoops Family Children’s Hospital, the campus includes several other healthcare facilities sharing our mission and serving our community:
Cabell Huntington Hospital is a not-for-profit, regional referral center with 303 staffed beds. Opened in 1956, it is also a teaching hospital and is affiliated with Marshall University Schools of Medicine and Nursing. At Cabell Huntington Hospital, we are not only concerned with your physical health needs; we are also sensitive to your emotional and educational needs. The road to recovery is made easier by physicians, therapists, nurses, technicians and counselors who are every bit as caring and compassionate as they are highly skilled.
The Marshall University Medical Center adjoins Cabell Huntington Hospital through a four-story atrium. In addition to the administration offices and the clinical practice area, it includes the Harless Auditorium and the library. Patients have access to Marshall University's physicians and specialists, as well as all the services the hospital has to offer, all conveniently located under one roof.
The Edwards Comprehensive Cancer Center specializes in comprehensive cancer care for children and adults, including experienced and respected physicians, radiologists and surgeons, a skilled and caring nursing staff and the most current protocols for cancer diagnosis, treatment and care. In our modern and attractive facility, patients have access to a full range of diagnosis and treatment services, including surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, laboratory testing, clinical trials and support services.
Other healthcare facilities sharing our campus include the Perinatal Center, the Center for Lung Health, the Pain Management Center and the J. Robert Pritchard Dialysis Center.
Together, we are leading the way in community health care, and with that comes the responsibility of training others to continue the tradition of excellence. The hospitals work with the teaching and research programs at Marshall University Joan C. Edwards School of Medicine and other medical and technical schools. Through these partnerships, the staff works with some of the most highly qualified medical specialists in the area, sharing insight into the latest concepts in medical education and patient care.
