In June of 1953, a 31-bed, red brick hospital was built in Gillette at a cost of $275,000. Four physicians and one visiting surgeon served the community of 2,190, which was then on the brink of an oil boom. Residents and community leaders continued looking to the future of healthcare with the opening of Campbell County Memorial Hospital in 1981.
Expansion and improvements to the facility began almost immediately, with construction of a fourth and fifth floor, Emergency Room and Outpatient Surgery additions and construction of the two-story annex on the north end of the building. The Heptner Radiation Oncology Center was completed in 2002, and an expansion of medical oncology services was completed in 2008 to form the Cancer Care Center at Campbell County Memorial Hospital.
A 6,000 square foot expansion of the Emergency Department was completed in 2009 and an extensive Laboratory was completed in late 2009. The Lab project includes the first full chemistry automation line in Wyoming.
A $68 million expansion project began in June 2009 with construction of a 3.5 level, 294 space parking structure adjacent to the main entrance. A three-level hospital addition capable of supporting three additional levels will begin construction in 2010.
As the community grows and changes, Campbell County Memorial Hospital will continue to develop programs and services to meet the healthcare needs of our citizens.
