Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center (WFUBMC), is a teaching hospital located in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.
WFUBMC comprises the Wake Forest University School of Medicine and the North Carolina Baptist Hospital.
The North Carolina Baptist Hospital was established in 1923 as an 88 bed community hospital. Wake Forest University School of Medicine (WFUSM) (formerly the Bowman Gray School of Medicine (BGSM)) was founded in 1902 on the old Wake Forest University campus in Wake Forest.
In 1941, BGSM moved in Winston-Salem, North Carolina in 1941 to become affiliated with the North Carolina Baptist Hospital. In 1997 the hospital and medical school realigned to become the Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center. The hospital is now a Level 1 trauma center that serves the entire Piedmont region of North Carolina. WFUBMC is also home to AirCare, the hospital's critical care transport service that operates both ground ambulances and a helicopter at the critical care level.
