Centra Southside Community Hospital

Centra Southside Community Hospital Come Visit us at our Website:
http://sch.centrahealth.com Construction and operating grants were made possible by the Commonwealth Fund of New York.

It all started in 1925, when a group of citizens set out to obtain a hospital that would serve the rich and the poor as well as measure up to "big city" standards of medicine. Southside Community Hospital was originally a foundation experiment to determine if proper health care could be provided in a rural setting. In July 1926, the Farmville Manufacturing Company was awarded the construction cont

ract and by November 1927 Southside Community Hospital had opened its doors to patients. The original 40-bed hospital cost $180,000 to build and equip. That expenditure, minimal by today's standards, has proven to be a wise investment. SCH has been the healthcare center of Southside Virginia since opening its doors November 9, 1927. Since then, it has operated on a non-profit basis with the goal of helping to heal the ill and injured. The hospital now serves the residents of Amelia, Appomattox, Buckingham, Charlotte, Cumberland, Lunenburg, Nottoway, and Prince Edward Counties. Our Vision
