As part of the deal, the two facilities became one entity with two campuses — Camden Clark Medical Center Memorial Campus and CCMC St. Joseph’s Campus.
Last September, WVUHS announced plans to purchase St. Joseph’s while affiliating with Camden-Clark.
Mike King, the CEO over the newly formed Camden Clark Medical Center, said of the merger, “We are going from being an area with two community hospitals to a city with one two-campus medical center affiliated with the state’s largest healthcare system…It not only positions us well for the changes and challenges coming in healthcare, but it brings much needed stability to both St. Joseph’s and Camden-Clark.”
