History

Tucked among acres of woods and lakes in Wisconsin Lake Country the Oconomowoc Health Resort opened in summer of 1907 founded by Arthur Rogers MD and his wife Theresa The two laid the foundation for what is now one of the countrys largest private independent behavioral health systems

Dr Rogers a leader in the field of mental health in his time understood mental illness as something you could treat Early on he pushed to offer innovative treatments like the Baruch Hydrotherapeutic Plant for individualized bathing in spring water

Shortly after the hospitalrsquos opening the building burned down Dr Rogers response He sold stock to finance reconstruction and in the process added several outbuildings to house therapeutic services

In 1935 he converted the hospital to a nonprofit charitable institution and renamed it the Rogers Memorial Sanitarium Corporation to honor his late wife Mrs Rogers would leave her own legacy the beautiful gardens which drew people from miles around Seeds from those original gardens remain part of todayrsquos therapeutic landscaping at the Oconomowoc campus

In 1955 the name changed to Rogers Memorial Hospital when Owen Otto MD became chief of staff In 1958 treatment of more seriously ill patients began after a new wing to the main building opened
In 2012 Patrick Hammer was named CEO of a growing system Recent years have seen the completion of new residential facilities and programs in Oconomowoc the opening of a third hospital campus in Brown Deer and the addition of a national network of specialized outpatient centers to further support mental health needs across the country

From a history of humble beginnings to near closure Rogers Behavioral Health looks to the future with confidence Its an incredible story of perseverance commitment and an unwavering focus on serving patients in need of lifechanging mental health and addiction treatment
