Piedmont Medical Center is a 288-bed Trauma Level III full-service hospital, opened in 1983 and located directly in Rock Hill, serving York, Chester, and Lancaster county areas. It has earned an "A" Hospital Safety Score from The Leapfrog Group five times in a row, plus Get with the Guidelines Gold Plus recognition for cardiac and stroke care -- a genuine, sustained quality record, not a one-time award.
A connected regional health system extends into Fort Mill
The same Piedmont Medical Network operates a separate 100-bed community hospital in Fort Mill plus additional emergency locations, meaning Rock Hill and Fort Mill residents effectively share a connected regional health system rather than two fully separate healthcare markets.
