Cobleskill Regional Hospital

Welcome to Cobleskill Regional Hospital

Founded in 1956, Cobleskill Regional Hospital is a 40-bed, not-for-profit hospital accredited by The Joint Commission. Cobleskill Regional Hospital provides inpatient care for general medical conditions, an inpatient short-term rehabilitation unit, and more than 20 outpatient specialty services in areas such as heart and cancer care, women’s health, orthopedics, lung health, general surgery, urology, diabetes care and treatment, hearing, and neurology -- in addition to physical therapy and rehabilitation services. Cobleskill Regional Hospital’s Emergency Department is staffed at all times by highly qualified physicians and nurses who provide rapid assessment and expert treatment 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Cobleskill Regional Hospital is the only hospital in Schoharie County. 

Cobleskill Regional Hospital has made keeping up with changing medical technology a top priority. In 2014 - 2015, major enhancements were made to the Hospital's Emergency Department which resulted in an expanded number of treatment rooms, Medical Imaging technologies continue to be a primary focus with the addition of a low-dose, 64-slice CT scanner made possible in part by a federal appropriation secured by Congressman Paul Tonko and awarded through a U.S. Health Resources and Services Administration HCOF grant.

In 1994, the Community Hospital of Schoharie County, became affiliated with Bassett Healthcare, and took the name Bassett Hospital of Schoharie County. This partnership opened the door for a more collaborative approach to healthcare delivery for residents of the Schoharie County region. In 2007, the name changed to Cobleskill Regional Hospital, affiliated with Bassett Healthcare Network, to better reflect the hospital's community-based identity and regional presence.

Today, Cobleskill Regional Hospital is a success story -- a hospital that serves the people of Schoharie County and surrounding region with the best that modern medicine has to offer combined with the personal care and community values that come with more than 60 years of community service. Sixty-two years after its founding, Bassett Hospital of Schoharie County remains a symbol of community pride and determination. The hospital’s name and staff have changed, and its services have evolved, but the essence of the institution - community spirit - is still alive and well. Today, the hospital stands as a testament to what a community can accomplish through teamwork, perseverance and shared sacrifice.
