St. John's Medical Center is blessed with incredible community support. During the entire 85-year history of the hospital, residents have continued to give:
- The St. John's Medical Center Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to raising major capital for St. John's Medical Center. Through gift programs, events and planned giving, the St. John's Foundation is a major source of funding for St. John's Medical Center.
- St. John's Auxiliary is an organization that raises money for specific equipment needs of St. John's as well as raising scholarship money for worthy student volunteers and St. John's employees.
- The Volunteer Program at St. John's is a wonderful way to share the gift of your time.
- Donations of cash, property and other material gifts are welcome by St. John's Medical Center. St. John's has equipment not found at other hospitals of our size due, in part, to the generous support of our patients, residents and visitors.
All types of giving are essential and make possible the highest quality health care in our community.
St. John's History: The hospital opened its doors in 1916 with support from the St. John's Episcopal Church. Then, the hospital consisted of an operating room, kitchen and two patient rooms. In 1960, the community collaborated to build a new facility on the present 16-acre campus. In 1976, St. John's became a hospital district with an elected six-member Board of Trustees.
As the community grew and healthcare became a priority for many people, the hospital realized a larger building was once again needed. In 1991 the existing facility was dedicated and opened for patient care. With 109 beds, St. John's Medical Center is a dynamic organization, offering a broad range of services, from emergency care to long-term care.
The Professional Office Building was remodeled in 1992, adjacent to the existing hospital facility, and it now houses physician offices, the Health Institute/Wellness Clinic, Professional Home Care, Hospice of the Tetons, the Patient Accounting Department, the Foundation Office, and other businesses. Although no longer affiliated with the church, the hospital retains the name...St. John's.
