History
Community Hospitals roots reach back to July 1 1946 when three trailblazing physicians pooled their resources transformed a 12th Street cafe into a 12bed hospital and offered burgeoning Grand Junction a real choice in healthcare

We called it the little MGM said Dr Kenneth Graves of the hospital more formally called the Maynard Graves and Maynard Hospital which was founded by him and husbandandwife Drs Ben Maynard and Addie Maynard The three doctors of osteopathy were not discouraged by the monumental task of starting a new hospital I didnt know it was impossible so I went ahead and did it anyhow Dr Graves said

There were few building materials for sale in postWorld War II Grand Junction Without new doors for patient rooms the three physicians located doors that had been in buildings used to house workers decades earlier during construction of the Highline Canal

There were no linens either but friends and patients bought their limit of one sheet or pillowcase apiece as they became available in stores until enough were stockpiled to open the hospital

Resourcefulness responsiveness and anticipation of community health and wellness needs have been the hallmarks of Community Hospital throughout our history
