Description
The parable of the Good Samaritan is the story of extraordinary care and kindness from a completely unexpected source Thats also the story of The Good Samaritan Hospital

Good Samaritan is not what youd expect of a 120yearold community hospital There is powerful medicine here Our physicians nurses therapists and technicians are extraordinarily skilled and dedicated to constantly improving patient treatment

Our facilities rival those of big city hospitals With an ultramodern emergency department a lifesaving heart center thats on par with the nations best And a complete womens center with birthing suites that are as big and as special as the blessed event itself

Whats more the powerful medicine you receive at Good Samaritan is delivered with the most comforting care you can get Where else will you find nice touches like room service peace and quiet and an entire staff who are always ready to ask Is there anything else that I can do for you today I have the time

Its all part of the Good Samaritan missionto be THE choice for highquality innovative services that improve the overall health of our community

And our visionto exceed the expectations of our patients community physicians and employees

Some hospitals offer powerful medicine some offer comforting care But its extremely rare to find a hospital that can do both well This community is fortunate to have a group of people who not only deliver extraordinary healthcare but deliver it with a smile
