Overview of Cookeville Regional Medical Center

Cookeville’s public hospital began as a 15-bed private clinic built by a local surgeon just off the town square in 1921. Bought by the city of Cookeville, Tennessee, in 1927, City Hospital was supervised by head nurses until 1950, when the city finished building a new hospital, Cookeville General, on the west side of town. Five physicians and 33 nurses and staff members cared for the patients admitted to the new hospital in its first year.

Now, more than 60 years later, Cookeville Regional Medical Center employs a staff of more than 2,000; it has more than 200 on its active and courtesy medical staff; and is a national award-winning, a state-of-the-art regional medical center that serves the entire 14-county Upper Cumberland region.
