Northern Hospital District of Surry County, dba, Northern Regional Hospital, was established in 1957 as an independent hospital and remains so to this day. Our Board of Trustees and our President/CEO all agree that is our goal to stay as a strong and vibrant independent local facility. Northern Regional Hospital was named as one of the top 100 hospitals in the nation, for the four years in a row. We also achieved a 5-Star rating from CMS in 2019. Northern Regional Hospital is licensed for 133 beds; 100 as acute beds and 33 beds designated for Skilled Nursing Facility.
Our service population is 10,000 in the immediate city and 72,000 in the county. With the outlying counties and nearby Virginia population our service range extends to around 80,000.
We are located in the northwestern section of North Carolina at the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Just 20 minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway. We are primarily a rural area but very close to larger cities. Winston Salem is 30 minutes away, Greensboro is about 1.5 hours away and Charlotte is around 2 hours.
