History

In the late 1940s the idea of a new modern hospital for Clarion and the surrounding communities took root After a tortuous and deeply emotional debate according to the Wright County Monitor the idea became a reality when sufficient funds were present to hire an architect Plans were designed a site was donated and the hospital we knew then as Community Memorial Hospital was built An editorial in the Monitor at the time stated this about the original building To say that Clarions hospital is one of the finest structures we have ever seen is a gross understatement The people of Clarion were obviously impressed with the new structure Since that time the hospital has had several more major additions and renovations that were completed in 1962 1966 1972 1982 1992 and most recently in 1997 when Project Healthcare was completed and the new 9 bed wing became a reality Community Memorial Hospital admitted its first patient on November 29 1951 That was almost 52 years ago And my how they have grown since then

Ten years ago the Meadows were built and celebrated their 10 year anniversary on July 2 2003 The Meadows independent retirement community was developed to meet the needs of the elderly residents of the community Bob and Jane Davison donated the land where the Meadows is built and played an instrumental role in the kickoff of the idea There were 4 Bobs who played a large role in the success of the Meadows Bob Davison who donated the land with his wife Jane Bob Kay who brought the idea of an independent retirement facility to Clarion and then did much of the research on the project and Bob Eaton who contributed many excellent design ideas and Bob Orcutt After all this planning the Meadows became a reality in 1993
