The hospital renovated the Segraves Care Center's bathing and dining area, as well as their nursing station. Ashe Memorial Hospital has a 60-bed Long Term Skilled Nursing home attached to the hospital facility, which was added in 1991. The hospital also has a commitment to the wellness of the community, which we have addressed with the expansion of an in-depth Wellness and Cardiac Rehabilitation Center, “Mountain Hearts,” which includes the opening of a therapeutic swimming pool.
The continuation of Ashe Memorial as a Primary Healthcare hospital for 67 years is a reflection of dedication and hard work by our past and present Medical Staff, Employees, and everyone involved with the hospital. However, the true measure of success at AMH is your commitment to support the hospital as your hospital!
