Surgical cases average 300 per month. Our annual deliveries are approximately 700. The Nursing Department at Gerald Champion Regional Medical Center consists of approximately 225 nurses with support from nursing assistants and unit secretaries.

GCRMC is our third year of an aggressive Preceptive Program for graduate nurses. The GCRMC approach to nursing orientation is different for our graduate nurses. When you join GCRMC as a graduate nurse we will place you in a 6 month comprehensive Preciptier Program. Each nurse spends time in a class room setting and working small patient assignments through out the 6 month orientation.
