The hub of the network is Bassett Medical Center in Cooperstown, which, in addition to traditional hospital-based care such as a birthing center and inpatient medical and surgical care, also offers sophisticated outpatient diagnostic and treatment capabilities.

In the region, the Bassett Medical Group also staffs over two dozen community-based primary care centers throughout eight counties. Bassett’s school-based health centers across four counties provide medical, mental health, and preventive dental care to children who might otherwise never have the chance to receive this care.
In addition to Bassett Medical Center, Bassett Healthcare Network has four area community hospitals: Cobleskill Regional Hospital, O’Connor Hospital in Delhi, Little Falls Hospital, and A.O. Fox Hospital in Oneonta providing acute inpatient care and 24-7 emergency care. A fifth hospital, A.O.

The village’s excellent schools – a 95% graduation rate – quality healthcare opportunities and low crime rates create a perfect atmosphere to raise a family and are some of the virtues that have enticed close to 2,000 people to call Cooperstown home. Located at the foot of Otsego Lake in the Central New York Region, Cooperstown is approximately 60 miles west of Albany, 67 miles southeast of Syracuse and 145 miles northwest of New York City.

Facility Location
Best known as the home of the Baseball Hall of Fame, Cooperstown possesses a quaint charm that is hard to come by these days. Beer fans will want to check out Brewery Ommegang, a world-class Belgian-style brewery just south of the city, while wine drinkers can visit several vineyards to quench their thirst. Though the Baseball Hall of Fame is perhaps the biggest cultural draw, one would be remiss not to visit Cooperstown's other museums, such as the Fenimore Art Museum, one of the nation's preeminent art institutions.
