Community-Owned Sheltering Arms Hospital Began With Two Beds
Sheltering Arms Hospital evolved from a two bed lying-in maternity unit to a 72 bed community owned facility. It gained Joint Commission accreditation and funded growth through patient fees and local support. The Sheltering Arms Hospital Foundation funds facility improvements and the Hospital Guild supports services as a volunteer group.
