Visitor Information


Visit Your Loved Ones

Visitors are encouraged to visit friends and family members. Visiting hours are open but we encourage you to check with admissions or the main desk prior to visiting to make sure your visit occurs at the most appropriate time.

In an effort to protect our community due to COVID-19 (Coronavirus), Bradley County Medical Center has announced that until further notice the only door that will be open to hospital visitors will be the Jolley Street entrance at the business desk on the west side of the hospital. That door will be open from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday and not open on weekends.

The front door of the hospital on Bradley Street remains closed to foot traffic and the hospital door on Jolley Street next to the ER Waiting Room is also closed to foot traffic.

The BCMC Emergency Room entrance is open to patients needing emergency room services.

The No Patient Left Alone Act was recently signed into law in Arkansas. This act states that a patient be allowed one support person who is permitted to be physically present on a daily basis at reasonable times throughout his or her hospitalization. Therefore, each patient may have one support person with them during normal visiting hours. In accordance with this new law, BCMC will allow one support person per patient during normal visiting hours.

Bradley County Medical Center reserves the right to limit or place visitor restrictions in certain situations including, but not limited to, when the presence of visitors would be medically or therapeutically harmful; interfere with the care or rights of any patient; visitors are engaging in violent, disruptive, or threatening behavior; or visitors are noncompliant with BCMC policy.

Visitors still have to follow normal screening procedures upon entering BCMC and must continue to follow the mask mandate, including respiratory hygiene and cough etiquette. No one will be allowed in the building if they have a temperature of 100.4 or higher or if they refuse to follow the mask mandate.

All hospital visitors will be screened using the current Centers for Disease Control (CDC) guidelines before they are permitted entry. Visitors that do not clear screening will not be allowed into the hospital.

Dr. Bradley Biggers to Transition to Hospitalist and Family Practice at BCMC Rural Health Clinic


Bradley County Medical Center is pleased to announce that Bradley Biggers, M.D., will move into a dual role on March 1 as hospitalist and begin seeing patients in the primary care setting at the BCMC Rural Health Clinic.

Dr. Biggers, a staple at BCMC since 2017, will make rounds on patients in the hospital on Monday through Friday as the hospitalist. Additionally, he will go back to his roots as a family practice provider at the BCMC Rural Health Clinic and be available to see patients Monday through Thursday.

This strategic move will improve the continuity of care in the hospital with the same provider seeing patients five days a week allowing them to see consistent, high-quality care from Dr. Biggers. Another benefit of this role is that it enhances access to primary care for the people of Bradley County and Southeast Arkansas as Dr. Biggers returns to family practice.

“We are pleased to be able to expand primary care services with the addition of Dr. Biggers to the Rural Health Clinic,” BCMC CEO/CFO Leslie Huitt said. “He will join Dr. Gregory, along with our amazing nurse practitioners to provide high quality care. In addition, we believe that having Dr. Biggers care for our hospital patients will improve the quality of care for our patients by having the same provider for the majority of their stay, if not their entire stay.”
