History

Founded in 1957 as Meriwether Memorial Hospital the original 38bed facility provided health care services to families in Meriwether County In 1996 Georgia Baptist leased the facility from Meriwether County with the goal of improving health care in rural communities

Georgia Baptist began an aggressive campaign to improve the facility Over 12 million dollars were invested into the facility to add new radiology suites a mammography suite CT scanner Emergency Department MRI service laboratory lobby chapel operating room labor and delivery suites endoscopy suite and DEXA scanner Completed in 2001 these improvements have made Georgia Baptist Meriwether Hospital and Nursing Home one of the finest community health care facilities in the state

On July 19 2004 Georgia Baptist Meriwether Hospital changed its name to Warm Springs Medical Center and was managed by Quorum Health Resources LLC

On July 19 2007 Warm Springs Medical Center opted out of the management contract with Quorum Health Resources and once again became a selfsufficient Hospital Authority managed facility

In November of 2007 Warm Springs Medical Center joined forces with Georgia Rehabilitation Center in Newnan GA to establish the Georgia Rehabilitation and Imaging of Warm Springs Medical Center located at the Summit Healthplex on Bullsboro Drive in Newnan GA
