Duke Regional Hospital (DRH), located in northern Durham, North Carolina is a general-services hospital that has been part of the Duke University Health System since 1998. The hospital has 388 beds and over 500 physicians on the medical staff, and has a certified Level II Intensive Care Nursery.

History

[edit | edit source]

The hospital opened to patients on October 3, 1976, as Durham County General Hospital, replacing the smaller Lincoln and Watts Hospitals, which closed on the same date.[2][3]

In 1998, an agreement with Duke University Health System was signed and the two officially began a 20-year partnership.

On July 1, 2013, Durham Regional Hospital was renamed Duke Regional Hospital as part of a marketing plan to rebrand its image.[4]

It is not a publicly funded hospital.
