History

In 1943 a group of Central Missouri physicians concerned about the lack of hospital facilities for their patients met to discuss the possibility of building a hospital They planned for and raised funds to build Charles E Still Osteopathic Hospital The 35bed hospital at 1125 Madison was dedicated on March 28 1951 Developing the first hospitalbased Home Health Agency in Central Missouri in 1984 and the first state and federally funded Skilled Nursing Facility in 1985 are just a couple examples of Still Hosptials continued commitment to providing quality health care to the citizens of midMissouri By 1990 the name had changed to Still Regional Medical Center and the facility had grown to a 142 bed hospital with six satellite clinics an osteopathic teaching program and more than 700 employees

In the early 1950s a group of citizens of Jefferson City and surrounding communities met and discussed the desire and need for an additional hospital As a result of their efforts nearly 3000 citizens and organizations donated more than 600000 and the federal government provided matching funds to build Memorial Community Hospital The 60bed hospital at 1432 Southwest Blvd was dedicated on June 7 1959 Memorial Community Hospital was the leader in developing many of the communitybased health and wellness programs that are common today In addition Memorial started the first Cardiac Rehabilitation program in midMissouri and in 1979 and was the first hospital in Jefferson City to offer inhouse Computer Tomography CT scanning services After serving the midMissouri region as competing notforprofit health care facilities Memorial Community Hospital and Still Regional Medical Center merged to become Capital Region Medical Center in 1994

On October 21 1997 Capital Region formed an affiliation with the University Health Sciences Center The affiliation combines the strengths of an academic medical center with the strengths of a communitybased hospital The relationship has been positive for our employees hospital families and the people we serve

Today Capital Region is a 100bed facility offering a continuum of care inhouse from prenatal and maternity services to a home health services It also offers one of the few accredited rehabilitation centers in the state advanced cardiac and oncology services and provides Cole County with ambulance services In addition to being a fullservice hospital Capital Region Medical Center operates an extensive clinic system from urgent care centers to specialty physician practices Throughout the history of Capital Region Medical Center the mission has stayed the same to improve the health and promote wellness of the people and communities we serve
