About Us
John Fitzgibbon an Irish immigrant who settled in Saline County in the 1800s saw the need for a hospital in Marshall MO At the time of his death in 1916 Fitzgibbon specified in his will that a board of directors be named and they were to oversee the construction of a hospital The hospital was to operate as a private notforprofit corporation
Fitzgibbons estate paid for the construction of the original hospital Construction began with a groundbreaking ceremony in March 1922 The first patient was admitted approximately one year later in April 1923
Patient load increased in the 1950s To alleviate this overcrowding the hospital was expanded to 90 beds The patient load had increased sixfold from the first year of operation In 1954 more than 1800 patients were admitted and there were 310 babies born
As the health care needs of area residents continued to change the Fitzgibbon Hospital Board in 1987 decided they could address the concerns shown by the local community help meet the need for expanded services and recruit additional physicians by construction a new building They chose a 73 acre site west of Highway 65 across from the Saline County Fairgrounds The new Fitzgibbon Hospital was opened in July of 1991
