PRINCETON BAPTIST MEDICAL CENTER’S STRENGTHS

NURSING CARE

Compassionate bedside nursing and an active involvement with nurse education have been strengths for almost a century. Princeton Baptist has clinical affiliation agreements with many Nursing Education programs in the Birmingham area.

PHYSICIAN EXPERTISE

The Princeton Baptist medical staff is a diverse group of physicians who are committed to continuous learning. Princeton Baptist is home to nationally well-respected residency programs in Pathology, Radiology, Medicine, Surgery and Transitional Year. This active intellectual environment contributes to Princeton Baptist’s earned reputation for state-of-the-art care.

A TEACHING ENVIRONMENT

Princeton Baptist is a training site for many healthcare programs other than just nursing and medical care. One particularly special teaching relationship is with the Auburn School of Pharmacy. We believe this teaching relationship with Auburn helps our physicians and our nurses to better ensure our patients receive the correct medication at the right time and in the right amount.

TECHNICAL EXPERTISE

Princeton Baptist is a demonstration site for General Electric diagnostic imaging. In other words, General Electric medical brings prospective clients to Princeton to show how excellent equipment in the hands of well-trained staff and physicians can improve both patient diagnosis and efficiency.

HOLISTIC APPROACH

Most importantly, we at Princeton Baptist consider our healthcare services as a calling to ministry. Our chaplains, physicians, and employees approach patient care as an opportunity for service.
