ECU Health is a Level 1 Trauma Center, one of 6 in the state of North Carolina.

The hospital has 37 operating rooms: 26 rooms are Shared Inpatient/Ambulatory Surgery; four rooms are C-Section; three rooms are Other Inpatient; four rooms are Endoscopy.The facility was originally known as Pitt Community Hospital and was located near downtown Greenville. In 1934, it changed to Pitt General Hospital, and then again to Pitt County Memorial Hospital (PCMH) in 1949. The hospital moved to West Greenville in 1951, and then to its current location in 1977. On August 17, 2011, it was announced PCMH would change its name to UHS Medical Center. The change failed to occur on the planned October 1, 2011. The UHS brand was taken, so the hospital system instead finally changed its name to Vidant Medical Center. At the time, Vidant Health claimed that Vidant is derived from the root "Vi" that is associated with "life" in Latin, and in fact "Vida" literally means "life" in Spanish. On January 3, 2022, Vidant Health Announced that it would be rebranding as ECU Health, but it would take several months for the changes to become noticeable.
