BOSTON MEDICAL CENTER


'Boston Medical Center' ('BMC') is a non-profit 581-bed medical center in Boston, Massachusetts. It was created by the formal merger of Boston City Hospital (BCH) and Boston University Medical Center Hospital (BUMCH). BCH was founded in 1855, and BUMCH in 1864 as the first municipal hospital in the United States. The two hospitals merged in July 1996. It has the largest 24-hour Level I trauma center in New England, and the Emergency Department had more than 120,000 visits in 2005.
BMC employs more than 1,600 in-house physicians — including 600 residents and fellows — and almost 1,500 nurses. It is part of the consortium of hospitals which operates Boston MedFlight. BMC is the primary teaching hospital for the Boston University School of Medicine
