Are you retiring in Highlands or Cashiers???

Medical Care on the Highlands Cashiers Plateau should be a concern if your looking to retire to the area.... We have a fantastic facility, The Highlands-Cashiers Hospital. Here is some food for thought when it comes to your health on the Plateau.




The Mission Statement



For more than half a century, Highlands-Cashiers Hospital has been dedicated to serving the medical needs of the people of southern Macon and Jackson Counties. In recent years we extended quality medical care to people in western Transylvania County and to residents of the Sky Valley and Dillard communities in neighboring Rabun County, GA.
Highlands-Cashiers Hospital is a modern 24-bed hospital and 80-bed long-term nursing center (the Fidelia Eckerd Living Center) staffed by highly qualified, dedicated physicians and a caring team of medical professionals.

The hospital continues to expand its services to provide you with the widest possible range of quality heath care. Our full-time medical staff and roster of associated physicians continues to grow.
In fact, medical specialties usually found only in much larger, metropolitan areas are now available locally. We've also expanded the range of diagnostic procedures available "on the mountain" by adding important new equipment and also utilizing a variety of mobile services, including bone density testing, nuclear medicine scans, and stereotactic breast biopsy.
And through our series of community health screenings, we're bringing heath care practically to your doorstep.
Although we've grown in recent years, we still go the extra mile to make you feel special every time you pass through our doors. Whether you are a patient, a family member, or a visitor, you're among friends who care about you as well as for you.




How do I get to the Medical campus????



Highlands-Cashiers Hospital is located just off US 64 between Highlands and Cashiers, NC -- approximately four miles east of Highlands and eight miles west of Cashiers.


From the South, travellers should take GA 246 to the right just north of Dillard, GA (which becomes NC 106) and follow it until it intersects with US 64 in Highlands (turn right at the first stop light and continue on US 64 east until you reach the Hospital campus).
If you need to phone the hospital....

For All Emergencies, Call 911
