History

SRMCs deep roots in Wellington Kansas stretch back to 1910 with the establishment of St Lukes Hospital operated by the Episcopal Church

St Lukes had its own nursing school and living quarters for its nursing students and took care of its Wellington neighbors In 1920 management of the hospital was taken over by nonprofit groups and local citizens then in 1925 management was assumed by a Board of Trustees elected by the people of Wellington At that time St Lukes became a municipal hospital and a new and larger facility was built on the site to replace the original medical center

In 1994 St Lukes merged with another area hospital Wellington Hospital to become Sumner Regional Medical Center At that time it was agreed that a larger medical office building was needed to accommodate the needs of the new doctors who became part of SRMC following the merger The new office space was built in 1995
