History

When we think of health care the first images that come to mind are probably of doctors nurses checkups emergency room visits and specialized procedures But its really so much more Health care refers to a complex system that is always changing always growing and always making strides to improve our quality of lifeSuch a system is depicted in our vision for Carroll Hospital Center a vision weve been achieving step by step year after year for nearly 50 years

It all began following World War II when a small group of local and civic business leaders had the wisdom to recognize the need for a community hospitaland the determination to bring their vision to reality You know a community is truly blessed when it has among its citizens people like this who are committed to a goal and have the energy and leadership skills necessary to affect positive change

As a result of their efforts what was then Carroll Hospital Center opened its doors for the first time on October 1 1961 Inside a growing community of patients and visitors found a medical facility of tremendous promise

Over the years weve come a long way from a onebuilding hospital where patients once had to ring a bell to get into the emergency room after hours to the greatly expanded comprehensive hospital center with stateoftheart technology that we are today We invite you to take a brief glance at the highlights in our Carroll Hospital Center Timeline

Over the years its easy to see that weve made great strides to build on the powerful vision of a few good citizens Youll also see that one thing has not changed As it was in 1961 our mission remains the same to bring an innovative extraordinary level of compassionbased care to our community
