History

In 1925 Bartow Memorial Hospital was opened and at that time was managed by the City of Bartow. The hospital, located on East Main Street, grew to include a number of buildings. The hospital building itself had a floor space of 54,000 square feet (5,000 m2). In 1954 Bartow Memorial became a non-profit organization. In 1996 the hospital became part of the Columbia-HCA Healthcare System. Columbia changed its name to the Hospital Corporation of America and held Bartow Memorial until 1999. In September 1998 construction began on the current hospital, located on the north side of Bartow. [4] [5] [6]

While construction was underway, LifePoint Hospitals Incorporated became the new owner of Bartow Memorial. Construction was completed in December 1999 and the new hospital building had 125,000 square feet (11,600 m2). The hospital was renamed as Bartow Regional Medical Center. Later, Health Management Associates (HMA) bought the hospital. In January 2014, HMA was bought by Community Health Systems. [7] [8] [9] In 2015, the hospital was sold to Clearwater-based BayCare Health System, a non-profit organization. [10]
