History

Carolinas Medical Center- NorthEast first opened their doors in 1937 as Cabarrus County Hospital by George A. Batte, Jr. and Charles A. Cannon. This hospital was renamed Cabarrus Memorial Hospital. In 1991, the hospital was reorganized as a non-profit organization. Then in 1997, the hospital was renamed to NorthEast Medical Center. In 2002, the hospital received the title of 58th Magnet Hospital, an award for nursing excellence. In 2007, the hospital joined the Charlotte-based Carolinas Healthcare System, and was renamed Carolinas Medical Center- NorthEast.

On April 3, 2012, it was announced that Carolinas Medical Center-NorthEast purchased the naming rights to the former Fieldcrest Cannon Stadium in nearby Kannapolis (home of the Kannapolis Intimidators minor league baseball team), adopting the name CMC-NorthEast Stadium for the upcoming season.
