CMH is an HFAP-accredited, Planetree-Designated, 25-bed Critical Access Hospital. The main hospital facility includes a medical/surgical unit, same-day and inpatient surgery units, a critical care unit, as well as a Family Birthing Center in Astoria. Patients served by CMH’s inpatient and surgical service units receive diagnostic testing services and laboratory services when needed, as well as access to a variety of complementary therapies and programs.
Patients admitted to CMH are cared for by our Hospitalists. A hospitalist is a physician whose primary professional focus is the medical care of hospitalized patients. The CMH Hospitalist works closely with your entire care team including your primary care provider, other specialists, and nurses to ensure you receive the high-quality care needed to help you recover from your illness, injury or surgical procedure.
Hospitalists are highly knowledgeable about the unique needs of a hospitalized person and are readily accessible to respond to each patient’s particular needs.
