NRMC Charleston

Naval Regional Medical Center (NRMC) Charleston, established in 1970 in Charleston, South Carolina, served as a key medical facility for the U.S. Navy and other military personnel in the southeastern United States. The center provided comprehensive healthcare, including surgery, emergency care, and specialized medical services, supporting both active-duty members and their families. Throughout its operational years, NRMC Charleston played a vital role in medical readiness and the treatment of service members during conflicts such as the Vietnam War and Gulf War. In 1998, following military restructuring and realignment, the facility transferred its functions to the Department of Veterans Affairs, becoming part of the Ralph H. Johnson VA Medical Center.
