Centra Southside Community Hospital

Centra Southside Community Hospital Come Visit us at our Website:
http://sch.centrahealth.com Construction and operating grants were made possible by the Commonwealth Fund of New York.

It all started in 1925, when a group of citizens set out to obtain a hospital that would serve the rich and the poor as well as measure up to "big city" standards of medicine. Southside Community Hospital was originally a foundation experiment to determine if proper health care could be provided in a rural setting. In July 1926, the Farmville Manufacturing Company was awarded the construction contract and by November 1927 Southside Community Hospital had opened its doors to patients. The original 40-bed hospital cost $180,000 to build and equip. That expenditure, minimal by today's standards, has proven to be a wise investment. SCH has been the healthcare center of Southside Virginia since opening its doors November 9, 1927. Since then, it has operated on a non-profit basis with the goal of helping to heal the ill and injured. The hospital now serves the residents of Amelia, Appomattox, Buckingham, Charlotte, Cumberland, Lunenburg, Nottoway, and Prince Edward Counties. Our Vision

Beginning today at Centra Southside Community Hospital! 🪪

We’re introducing important visitor safety enhancements across all Centra hospital campuses to help protect our patients, visitors, and caregivers.

As part of this update, visitors will receive a visitor ID badge upon arrival and should plan to bring a photo ID for check-in. These changes will begin at Southside Community Hospital on December 16 and will roll out to all Centra hospitals through January 2026.

This enhanced visitor management system helps us verify and track visitors, understand who is in our facilities, and maintain a safer, more secure environment, while aligning with best practices used by hospitals nationwide.

Thank you for your cooperation and partnership as we continue prioritizing safety for everyone who walks through our doors. Learn more about what to expect when visiting: https://www.centrahealth.com/about-centra/visitation
