Serving the area since 1932, Randolph Hospital pairs state-of-the-art technology with a dedicated, caring staff and continues to expand its offerings to meet the needs of a growing community.

Randolph County Welcomes New Surgery Center

Thanks to the creation of the Central Piedmont Surgery Center, Randolph County residents will no longer have to leave the community to receive surgical services.

The facility, which opened its doors in November 2011, is a free-standing ambulatory surgery center that was created through a joint venture between Randolph Hospital, Nueterra Healthcare and several local surgeons. It offers two operating suites and will handle 1,600 to 2,000 surgeries each year. Patients can receive care for a variety of ailments, as the facility's surgeons specialize in areas such as general surgery, gynecology, ophthalmology, orthopedics, otolaryngology, podiatry and urology.

Located in Asheboro, Central Piedmont Surgery Center is open Monday through Friday from 6 a.m. until 6 p.m. 

Randolph Cancer Center Gets National Recognition

Local residents have long turned to Randolph Hospital for their health-care needs, and the hospital in turn has made sure it has the most current and sophisticated equipment and facilities. A prime example is the Randolph Cancer Center, now in a 21,000-square-foot complex on the hospital’s grounds, part of an overall 58,000-square-foot addition that includes the Randolph Hospital Outpatient Care Center.

The cancer center offers chemotherapy, radiation therapy and therapeutic support services to Randolph County and the surrounding area. All forms of cancer can be treated, providing a fully integrated medical campus for both inpatient and outpatient needs. And just to make sure people can keep track of its activities, the center has a Facebook page with blogs from doctors and nurses as well as health and nutritional information.

All this innovation hasn’t gone unnoticed. The Randolph Cancer Center has received two Hematology & Oncology Practice Excellence Awards from Hematology & Oncology News and Issues magazine.

While the cancer center is a major accomplishment, there’s much, much more at this 145-bed facility.

Breast Center Designated Center of Excellence

In 2010, the Breast Center at Randolph Hospital was designated a Breast Imaging Center of Excellence by the American College of Radiology's Commission on Quality and Safety and the Commission on Breast Imaging. Also in 2010, the Kellogg, Brown and Root Foundation awarded a grant to the hospital to support the implementation and integration of its Electronic Medical Record system.

Like any health-care facility, Randolph Hospital is mindful of financial concerns. This nonprofit has always been a careful steward of its funds, however, so the community is responsive to its needs. A bond issue covered $23 million of the outpatient and cancer centers' costs, but an additional $4.8 million came from private, corporate and foundation gifts.
