Malheur Memorial Hospital
With the observance of National Hospital Week starting
Sunday, May 7, it seems fitting to reflect on the importance
that our hospital has on this community and area.
Malheur Memorial Hospital was built with contributions and
hard work by the citizens of this community, and later the
nursing home wing and improvements were financed by a bond
issue. It has relied on a small levy over the years to supple
ment its operating expense.
After many years of operation it is taken for granted, but
it also has become a part of the lives of each resident of this
area. New babies, surgery, illness and recovery, life and
death; it has touched each of us in some manner.
Through the years our hospital has been constantly improved
with new equipment, new techniques, new facilities; and board
members and administration have wisely taken the necessary
steps to keep it accredited and up to date.
Sunday Malheur Memorial Hospital plans an open house, and
this is an excellent chance to see some of the new equipment
and some of the areas not usually accessable to most of us.
Candy Stripers will conduct guided tours from 1:30 to 3:30
Sunday afternoon, and we would urge those of you who can
to attend and bring your children too.
Our attention is called this week also to the new recovery
room, just completed and purchased in part from proceeds of
the Frank Parr Memorial Fund. This important facility joins
the Dr. J. J. Sarazin Medical Library, the room provided from
the Warren and Wilda Farmer Memorial, and other memorials
throughout the years which have provided needed hospital
facilities.
One of the greatest assets of a hospital in the community
is the fact that it attracts doctors. Nyssa is most fortunate in hav
ing six doctors of medicine in practice. Too many of our small
cities are without doctors, and it is only natural that most of
them desire to locate and practice where hospital facilities
are available. Doctors from other communities also refer their
patients to our hospital and use the operating room for surgery.
Only in the most specialized cases do doctors have to send
their patients to larger or more technically equipped hospitals.
And the greatest asset of all is that the patient is adminis
tered to, nursed by, and cared for by our friends and neighbors.
This is a plus factor that can’t be beat anywhere.
Malheur Memorial Hospital, as well as all of the other 7,000
hospitals in the United States, is faced with increasingly
higher costs and greater financial difficulties each year. The
only way that we as citizens and taxpayers of this community
can assure the continued financial solvency of our hospital
is to use it when we need it.
So as National Hospital Week is observed, take a little time
to reflect on how fortunate we are to have Malheur Memorial
Hospital. Give a word of thanks to members of the hospital
auxiliary, the Candy Stripers, and others who give their time
and efforts to assure continued success of our hospital. And
for goodness sakes, don’t go out of town when you need the
services that our hospital is so adequately equipped to provide.
