Our hospital is dedicated to providing top-notch medical care.
UK Good Samaritan Hospital is an acute-care facility with 180 licensed beds. Founded in 1988, the hospital has a long tradition of providing exceptional patient care in a community-hospital atmosphere. Its acquisition in July 2007 by UK HealthCare added the resources of a major health care system.
With more than 600 clinical and ancillary staff and a medical staff of more than 600 physicians, UK Good Samaritan is able to offer a broad range of health care services to meet the needs of the residents of central and eastern Kentucky. All patient rooms in the hospital are single-occupancy, ensuring each patient privacy and individual attention.
