Howard Young Medical Center was built in 1977, through a generous gift from S. Howard Young, a New York art dealer and uncle of actress Elizabeth Taylor. The 99-bed facility opened its doors to patients in February 1977.
Howard Young Medical Center is an acute care facility that provides a level of care not commonly found in a typical rural hospital. Specially trained physicians, nurses and technical personnel are dedicated to caring for the health and wellness of those in communities in the area. Fifty-two beds are available for general medical / surgical patients, and a 10 bed special care unit meets the needs of more seriously ill patients. The Transitional Care Unit offers additional beds.
In 1999, the hospital was named as a top 100 Orthopedic Hospital by establishing national benchmark performances in clinical services and procedures.
