Welcome to Falls City, Nebraska and Community Medical Center
COMMUNITY MEDICAL CENTER is dedicated to serving others, caring with compassion, and making a difference for individuals and surrounding communities.

Originally founded in 1918 Community Medical Center was the fifth hospital in Nebraska to receive accreditation from the American Hospital Association.

CMC is currently under construction with an exciting 8 million dollar expansion/renovation project. Major enhancements of the expansion are the Family Medicine Clinic and Surgery Center.

CMC includes single-occupancy patient rooms, two labor-delivery-postpartum recovery (LDRP) suites, a state-of-the-art surgical center, in-house new MRI, a GE 64-slice CT scanner and spacious physical therapy department and newly expanded Family Medicine Clinic.
