Baptist Health Corbin wins the Large Business of the Year Award

At the April 17 London-Laurel County Chamber of Commerce annual banquet, Baptist Health Corbin had the honor of receiving the Large Business of the Year Award.

“With 100 years of dedicated service to our communities, Baptist Health has grown from humble beginnings at the old Corbin Municipal Hospital to a state-of-the-art 273 bed acute care facility. The journey began in July 1986 with the relocation to the Cumberland Falls Highway location, paving the way for expansion and innovation in healthcare,” Baptist Health Corbin wrote in a release.

“From the spacious new facility to the addition of cutting-edge services like robotic surgery and Neonatal Intensive Care, Baptist Health has remained committed to providing ‘quality close to home.’”

Sherrie Mays, Vice President, CNO, accepted the award for Baptist Health Corbin.

“This recognition is a testament to the hard work, dedication, and passion of every member of our organization. When we started this journey, our goal was simple yet ambitious: to demonstrate the love of Christ by providing and coordinating care and improving the health of our communities,” Mays said.

This year is a special year for Baptist, marking 100 years of service to our communities.

Mays continued, “Over the years, we have faced challenges and overcome obstacles, but through perseverance and teamwork, we have continued to grow and succeed. This year is particularly special for us, as Baptist hospitals are celebrating 100 years of service to our communities throughout the state of Kentucky. This milestone is a testament to our enduring commitment to providing exceptional healthcare and making a positive impact on the lives of those we serve. As we celebrate this achievement tonight and reflect on the legacy of Baptist, we also look to the future with optimism and determination. Together, we can continue to make a difference in our community and beyond.”

Baptist Health Corbin would like to thank the London-Laurel County Chamber of Commerce for this prestigious award, the company noted in the release.
