History
Howard County Community Hospital has come a long way since opening its doors in 1955 The Hospital was built from the ground up and has had five new additions to date

In 1998 bonds were initially passed for the construction of new Hospital patient rooms a new admissions area and a new Hospital entry Construction started that same year and staff moved into the new building in June of 2000

In October of 2000 Howard County Community Hospital became a 25bed Critical Access Hospital In March of 2001 the Medical Clinic merged with the Hospital and both entities were up and successfully running in May of 2001

As Clinic business and the amount of Providers increased the need for a new Clinic became more evident Construction started on the new Clinic and general reception area in 2005 and was completed in 2008 The first official day it was open for business was February 4 2008
