OUR REGION’S LARGEST HEALTH CARE PROVIDER

For more than 70 years, Tidelands Health has proudly cared for our community.

We are our region’s largest and most comprehensive provider of medical care with four hospitals and more than 60 care locations stretching from Andrews to North Myrtle Beach.

As our region’s MUSC Health affiliate, Tidelands Health provides seamless access to a broad continuum of high-quality care including wellness services, primary and specialty care, rehabilitation services and post-acute care.

Established by a small group of citizens in the 1940s, our local roots run deep. We are led by a volunteer board of trustees and, as a not-for-profit organization, we don’t have stockholders. Every dollar generated through the services we provide is reinvested right back into our health system and region.
