History

Our History
In 1958 the Garland Chamber of Commerce appointed a hospital board to investigate the need for a community hospital Incorporation papers were submitted to the State in April 1958 and were accepted in May of the same year The hospital was named Garland Memorial Hospital in memory of the veterans of World War II Plans were to raise 1000000 locally and that was to be matched by the federal government under the HillBurton Act This would provide for a one hundred bed hospital Groundbreaking for the new hospital began in January 1963

Memorial Hospital of Garland opened its doors in March 1964 First to be built was the emergency department in 1970 Bed capacity was raised to 176 with an addition of a patient tower in 1972 In 1980 Phase I was built with a nursery and new labor and delivery areas In November 1988 the 47 million professional office building and Day Surgery area was opened

In 1991 Memorial Hospital joined Baylor Health Care System and was renamed Baylor Medical Center at Garland

In August 2004 the hospital opened the Don and Ruth Buchholz Pavilion a
105000squarefoot addition that united the hospital and the adjacent Baylor
Medical Plaza I office building into a streamlined medical complex The four story addition was designed not only to provide additional clinical capacity but to encourage the community to seek out the hospital in new ways as a health care resource In recent years Baylor Medical Plaza III and IV have expanded the space for outpatient health services and physician offices further underscoring the hospitals mission to provide quality health care close to home

In summer 2010 Baylor Garland completed a 4300squarefoot expansion and renovation of the Emergency Department ED The Baylor Garland ED now offers a dedicated ambulance entrance eight medical screening exam rooms new lobby checkin and waiting areas 20 treatment rooms and seven critical care rooms Laboratory and pharmacy services as well as expanded radiology capabilities have been added
