History

Our History
The history of CMCNorthEast dates back to the mid 1930s when Charles A Cannon and his associate George A Batte Jr led an effort to pursue more accessible and fullservice healthcare for the wave of workers that Cannon Mills brought to Cabarrus County The small private quotsick housequot on Union Street was not able to accommodate the growing population so Mr Cannon and Mr Batte sought the help of state legislators In 1935 the General Assembly of North Carolina enacted legislation enabling Cabarrus County to establish a public hospital

Cabarrus County Hospital opened in 1937 with 46 beds and 10 bassinets Over the past seventy years Cabarrus County Hospital has emerged from a small countyowned facility into a regional medical center focusing on patient care education and research Each decade has brought major facility expansion and renovation projects to accommodate a growing market expanded service lines and new programs In 1991 the hospital was reorganized as a nonprofit organization In 1997 Cabarrus Memorial Hospital began doing business as NorthEast Medical Center to more accurately reflect its expanded position in the region and its commitment to all aspects of careclinical education research In 2007 NorthEast Medical Center merged with the Charlottebased Carolinas Healthcare System to become CMCNorthEast
