Bolivar Medical Center is a Joint Commission Accredited, CMS Deemed Status, 164-bed general acute care hospital located in Cleveland, Mississippi. It is a comprehensive healthcare facility that provides inpatient, outpatient and emergency department services.

Bolivar Medical Center was originally East Bolivar County Hospital, and it was located on the current campus of Delta State University where the Robert E. Smith School of Nursing is located now. In 1962, a new building was constructed at 901 East Sunflower Rd (our current location), and the hospital moved to allow for expansion and additional services. Growth continued during the next decade, so in 1971, amidst the closing of West Bolivar County Hospital in Rosedale, our hospital was renamed to Bolivar County Hospital and expanded a north wing. In September 1997, the hospital realized additional need for space and services, so an Outpatient Rehabilitation facility and a Physicians' Office building were constructed. The name was updated to Bolivar Medical Center to reflect the medical center offerings.

From its inception to 2000, the hospital was operated by Bolivar County. In 2000, Province Healthcare acquired the hospital, and in 2004, LifePoint Health acquired all Province hospitals. The financial strength allowed for facility and equipment upgrades, including a new MRI machine, CT scanner with low-dose radiation software, and an interventional radiology room.

With the healthcare climate change, LifePoint and Bolivar Medical Center brought on Cleveland Medical Clinic as employed partners in January 2015. At that time, there were physicians employed by Bolivar Medical Center, and the relationship between the hospital and clinic allowed local support, stability, and continuum of high quality patient care.
