History
History of NCMH
Community pride Selfreliance Commitment to purpose
The history of the hospitals in Newberry County is a testimony to these enduring qualities

From its earliest days the county was blessed with many dedicated doctors but a community hospital was only a dream until 1925

Acting in their strong tradition of selfreliance the citizens of the county decided to work together to make that dream a reality A community meeting was held December 11 1923 and the Newberry County Hospital Association was formed to direct the funding and building of this much needed facility

Local citizens bought stock to finance the hospital School children collected pennies and nickels The people even gave a quotlinen showerquot for their hospital

It was a moment of great community pride when Newberry County Hospital formally opened its doors on December 22 1925

In 1937 the AfricanAmerican community demonstrated these same qualities of community pride selfreliance and commitment to purpose in establishing the Peoples Hospital This facility was under the direction of JE Grant Sr MD The AfricanAmerican community organized service clubs throughout the county to supplement the hospital financially A vegetable garden and poultry operation also offered additional support

On December 14 1999 the hospital held a groundbreaking ceremony for a 13425 million renovation and expansion project This project which was completed in 2002 completely changed the first floor making it a patientfriendly outpatient services mall A rededication ceremony was held September 5 of that year

Since that major renovation the hospital has not slowed down A satellite office was opened in Little Mountain in 2003 The birthing unit New Beginnings was expanded and completely renovated in 2004 In 2006 another major renovation and expansion began in 2007 We added a new and much larger laboratory area surgical dressing rooms pediatric rooms obstetrical OR in New Beginnings and other minor renovations Also in 2007 the hospital has begun a medical office building project in the front of the hospital This will include a new and expanded Wellness Center We have an Oncology Center under the supervision of oncologist Dr Steve Madden and Lynn Ackerman a certified oncology nurse This center provides outpatient chemotherapy at NCMH

Over the yearsthrough expansions mergers and hard timesthe community has demonstrated its strong support for exceptional healthcare With the hospital quotlinen showerquot with the investment of school childrens pennies and taxpayers dollars and even with vegetable gardens the people of Newberry County have been personally involved in providing exceptional healthcare to their neighbors families and newcomers

quotExceptional services with a personal touchclose to homequot is more than just a slogan at Newberry County Memorial Hospital Its a way of life
