History

Our History
Lincoln County Miners Hospital
Healthcare in the Kemmerer Diamondville area has come a long way Back in 1913 the United Mineworkers Association established a tiny medical facility at the top of Park Drive above Archie Neil Park Later that year the name became Lincoln County Miners Hospital

South Lincoln Hospital District
In 1959 a decision was made to establish a taxing entity to support the hospital and the South Lincoln Hospital District was formed in 1960 with a 20bed hospital being dedicated in 1961

The year 2010 marked the 50th Anniversary of the Hospital District

South Lincoln Medical Center
Construction on a new hospital began in 1986 and a dedication service was held in 1988 Since that time weve seen the addition of the 24bed Nursing Center and the Emergency Medical Services MultiPurpose Building in 1999

One Constant Quality of Healthcare
Though the past years have brought changes advances and additions to the facility and campus known as South Lincoln Medical Center one constant has remained the quality of healthcare
