History
History
Nemaha County Hospital was dedicated and opened for public health services on May 1 1963 in the original 26bed building Construction was funded jointly by bonds issued by Nemaha County and by HillBurton funds
The institution grew rapidly and the need for expansion was fulfilled with an additional bond issue with completion in 1970 The added construction increased patient capacity to 44 including four intensive care beds and provided new administrative offices
In 1974 Nemaha County Hospital added physical therapy a new store room maintenance garage ambulance garage dining room and remodeled the kitchen all financed from the hospitals operating funds
In 1992 the licensed bed capacity was changed to 39 and 5 bassinets Former patient rooms were needed for pharmacy remodeling and nursing offices
Bed capacity was decreased to 37 in 1994 after remodeling for cardiac rehab The bed capacity was decreased to 32 in 1996 due to decreased inpatient census
In April of 2000 the voters passed a 475 million bond issue Ground breaking began in June of 2000 and the remodeling which was completed in three phases was completed in April of 2003 The project added a new wing for outpatient services new OR and Procedure rooms contemporary ER facilities private patient rooms and updates to many other departments The bed capacity for Nemaha County Hospital is now 20
It should be noted that a county tax levy for the operational fund was necessary only the first three years since 1966 the hospital has been selfsupporting and there have been no county taxes for that purpose since The bond fund used for original construction and the addition retired in 1979
Since we are a county owned facility we are governed by state law which specifies the hospital is controlled by a Board of Directors comprised of five members for sixyear terms Our Directors meet at 600 pm on the third Tuesday of each month at the Hospital A Board member meets quarterly with the County Commissioners
