Weems History

Founded in 1959, the George E. Weems Memorial Hospital is a not-for-profit community healthcare facility committed to providing quality healthcare to Florida’s Forgotten Coast. Serving Franklin County from Alligator Point to Apalachicola, Weems is a 25-bed critical access hospital with emergency services, specialty care resources and two medical offices located in Apalachicola and Carrabelle.

Weems hospital is staffed 24/7 by residency trained, board certified physicians provided by Southland Emergency Medical Services of FL.  The same ER physicians also serve as hospitalists for in-patient hospital care.  This consistency in care provides for a smooth transition from the ER to the acute care setting.
