was open in 1933

This hospital held 31 adult beds and had a nursery capacity of 12 Nearly 20 years later in 1953 this hospital added 20 beds

By the spring of 1969 the hospital purchased 72 acres of undeveloped land on Reedsburgs north side This was later to become the site of the present facility

In June of 1972 the Edward Snyder Memorial Nursing Home a 50 bed long term care facility was opened
