About us

United Hospital Center is the result of a merger between St. Mary’s and Union Protestant hospitals in 1970. This bold move provides north central West Virginia with a regional community hospital that offers a vast array of services. The new UHC opened in 2010 and is located along Interstate 79 in Bridgeport. The 692,000-square-foot structure rises eight stories. It is designed around the environment with the patient, family, staff and community in mind – which includes enhanced patient privacy, a high level of technology integration and improved access to care. The acute care facility has 292 private inpatient rooms and 24 observation rooms with a medical staff that consist of more than 140 primary care and specialty physicians. UHC employs more than 2,000 associates and is a member of WVU Medicine.

    ✂️✂️✂️ In keeping with its mission to deliver high-quality care to patients in North Central West Virginia, UHC dedicated a new 18-bed Intermediate Unit (IMU) today. These aesthetically enhanced private rooms on the seventh floor, include a patient-centered design that provides specialized care to patients who typically require longer stays. The new IMU will officially open to patients on Tuesday, October 1. The rooms in this $7.9 million unit will feature new cabinetry and recliners, individual climate control features, LED light fixtures, wood grain laminate flooring, soundproof ceiling tiles, and private bathrooms with walk-in showers and raised toilets. Each room will offer an expansive view of the beautiful pastoral setting offered on the UHC campus. IMU nurses and ancillary staff have received specialized training and education through collaboration with multiple disciplines and close partnerships with the CCU team. This partnership will continue to be fostered between CCU and IMU as the unit opens and grows.
