Northwest Hospital (Randallstown, Maryland)
Northwest Hospital is a full-service hospital located in Randallstown, Maryland, a suburb of Baltimore. It is owned and operated by LifeBridge Health. The hospital, formerly known as Northwest Hospital Center and Baltimore County General Hospital, offers a range of medical services including emergency care and surgical facilities.
Northwest Hospital has 202 beds for inpatient care and provides services for medical, surgical, behavioral health, rehabilitative, and hospice patients. The hospital follows the Friesen concept, which includes nursing alcoves outside each patient room to allow nurses to spend more time with their patients. This design promotes direct patient care through smaller 20-bed units, the elimination of nursing stations, and the placement of supplies, medications, and charts in close proximity to patients.
The hospital was founded in 1963 as Baltimore County General Hospital and has since evolved into Northwest Hospital. It is situated at the intersection of Old Court Road and Carlson Lane, south of Liberty Road.
