Guthrie Corning Hospital

The Guthrie Corning Hospital is a rural hospital and Level III trauma center in Corning, New York. It opened June 4, 1900 at the Stearns House at East First and Chemung Streets.

It initially opened with 9 beds, but today has 65 private patient rooms at the new facility opened in July, 2014, ten years after being acquired by Guthrie. In the transition, the hospital built the Guthrie Corning Cancer Center, a physical rehabilitation building, Guthrie HealthWorks Wellness & Fitness Center, and a same day surgicenter in Big Flats, New York. It received a provisional trauma center designation August 28, 2023.

Why this record matters

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
