Our History
A Legacy of Caring

Madison Memorial Hospital first opened its doors in 1951 as a 29 bed facility with just 23 employees During its first 24 hours of operations the hospital had 1 birth 1 death and 5 surgeries Since that day it has continued to grow and evolve with the changing needs of the community

For example in 1976 the hospital broke ground for a new building but was delayed due to the Teton Dam failing and flooding Madison County Many employees lost their homes and camped in the basement of the hospital This tragedy delayed the building significantly but construction continued and was completed in 1978

Madison Memorial Hospital was recognized as one of the top 100 small hospitals in the nation in 1994 Just two years later the hospital started another construction period divided into two phases expanded the emergency and physical therapy departments new business offices maternity center and added a new parking area and canopied the entrance All of which were fully completed by 1999

In 2001 Ricks College became BYUIdaho which helped Madison County became one of the fastest growing areas in Idaho A growing community requires healthcare to expand with it so in 2005 Madison Memorial started a major construction project allowing them to continue to meet and exceed the medical needs of residents in the five counties they serve

In July of 2008 Madison Memorial completed a 55 million dollar expansion that tacked on 76000 square feet of new space and remodeled 85000 square feet of space The addition included new and improved facilities in the areas of Emergency Medicine Radiology Laboratory Surgical Suites and much more

Several new services including cardiac rehab pain management shortstay therapy oncology and advanced surgical procedures were also added

Madison Memorial has also made outstanding strides in neonatal care In 2008 nearly 1600 newborn babies took their first breath in Madison Memorial Hospitalnearly 400 more deliveries than predictions for the year 2012 Madison Memorial met the need for a large maternity ward by expanding to make more room for mothers and newborns The Hospital has been able to keep infants at an even earlier gestational age than before with the addition of two neonatologists and the NICU opened its doors in the Fall of 2009
