About

Baptist Health-Fort Smith is the oldest hospital in Arkansas, having originally been built in 1887. Since then, the Fort Smith hospital has expanded at its current location on Towson Avenue. Baptist Health-Fort Smith, which serves residents of the River Valley, joined Baptist Health in November 2018 and has 492 licensed beds. The nationally recognized, faith-based hospital is just south of downtown Fort Smith.

Baptist Health-Fort Smith’s Emergency Department is a Level III trauma center, which means it has demonstrated the ability to provide advanced trauma life support (ATLS) prior to the transfer of patients to a higher-level trauma center.

Also located on the campus is the Marvin Altman Fitness Center. Nearby, Baptist Health Medical Plaza-Fort Smith at 1500 Dodson Ave. is home to a number of Baptist Health specialty clinics and the Jennifer’s Too gift shop.
