Brief History
Concerned citizens met July 17, 1947, to discuss ways of providing modern health care to Seward County and the surrounding area. Through fundraising efforts and the Hill Burton plan, construction for a new hospital began July 4, 1949, and opened on September 1, 1950, in memory of World War I & II servicemen.
These first fundraising efforts created the original membership from which the Board of Directors had been selected until 1993. At that time, the corporate name was changed to Memorial Health Care Systems and the membership reopened.
Now, with many health care services to offer, and in collaboration with three physician clinic sites, family physicians and physician assistants, Memorial Health Care Systems is well prepared to carry on the dreams of the original concerned citizens by providing modern, technically-advanced health care services close to home.

Brandon Henley, D.O.
Always willing to explain the conditions, of my health. Helps to understand when I don't know what to expect. He had people waiting but he always takes that extra minute. I believe he is the person to do so with every person.

Eldridge Burns, M.D.
My appointment took a very long time and I know I was forgotten about when I had to walk out into the hallway to ask my nurse when my son would be getting his vaccinations so I could leave. A wellness check shouldn't take over an hour.
