Learn about some of the many services we offer at Coleman County Medical Center to care for our community
The emergency department at CCMC is designated a Level IV Trauma Center by the Texas Department of State Health Services. The department is staffed 24/7 by highly-qualified medical providers, nurses and support staff.
CCMC offers a full range of diagnostic radiology services – general x-ray, portable X-ray, C-Arm, CT scanning, and ultrasound – on both an inpatient and outpatient basis. Exams are performed around the clock by a licensed radiologic technologist.
Therapy services include physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy and cardiac rehabilitation. The physical therapy staff meets the needs of outpatients as well as Swing Bed patients who suffer from movement, balance, and functional difficulties from aging, disease, injury, surgery or environmental factors.
The Swing Bed Program at CCMC is for Medicare patients discharged from Coleman or any other hospital following an acute illness, injury or surgery, who still need time and physical therapy to heal and strengthen before going home.
