The general status of any given place usually depends on its accessibility to healthcare. Healthcare constitutes an important aspect of any properly functioning society. Cape Fear Valley Hospital is a 200-bed capacity started in 1956. The hospital serves the entire population of Cumberland County, which has a population of approximately 300,000. The rapid growth of the hospital has ensured that it also provides medical services to Bladen and Hoke counties as well. The hospital has grown over the years, and its revenue growth and market share can show this. The hospital’s mission is “provide exceptional health care for all our patients.” Currently, the company has a 916-bed capacity serving six counties in the entire Southeastern North Carolina. Annually, the hospital serves approximately 935 000 patients making it one of the biggest healthcare facilities in the region (Cape Fear Valley Medical Center, 2022). The hospital has 3000 employees and reported a staggering $2.7 billion in revenue in the 2022 fiscal year.
