This 71-bed medical and surgical facility includes a modern birthing center, a 24-hour emergency department, and a state of the art Outpatient Diagnostic Center. Cobb is now a part of the Ty Cobb Healthcare System. Cobb Memorial Hospital is a 71-bed medical and surgical facility with a six-bed Intensive Care Unit, a modern birthing center, outpatient services and surgery, and physician-staffed 24-hour emergency department. Additionally, Cobb Memorial Hospital maintains a durable medical equipment (DME) company known as Home Base Health Services. The new Outpatient Diagnostic Center enables the community to utilize radiology, laboratory, and even respiratory services at the hospital in an outpatient format. With tests performed by local medical experts at the hospital, the facility will speed up testing procedures for patients. ==History== Cobb Memorial Hospital was dedicated in Royston, on January 22, 1950, to the memory of Ty Cobb's parents, William Herschel Cobb and Amanda Cobb. Ty Cobb donated $100,000 in Coca-Cola stock toward the construction of the modern 24-bed hospital designed to meet the health care needs of the people of his hometown and surrounding rural northeast Georgia. From that donation, there now exists the “hospital that was built with a bat.” The Royston Record described the new facility as "one of the most modern and best equipped hospitals that has been built under the Hill Burton (Federal Act) in the state of Georgia," containing "the latest equipment... that could be bought." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cobb Memorial Hospital」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
