History
editThe first hospital was built in 1950 as a 13-bed osteopathic facility. However, its history goes back 6 years before to a remodeled house on King Street opened by Dr. Lawrence Brown, a graduate of the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine, and Dr. C. H. Couch. A new hospital, the Troy Community Hospital, was planned and opened in 1950 on Elmira Street.[3] It expanded 6 years later to 72 beds with 12 bassinets and was located at 100 John Street.[4] The hospital became part of Guthrie in 1984 and achieved Critical Access Hospital status in 2003. In 2013, a new 25 bed facility was built with an on-site helipad.[1]
The hospital won the 2017 Women's Choice Award for Emergency Care.[5]
