Our History:

Our Beginnings

In 1944 the citizens of Kimball voted on a bond issue for $90,000. After the bond passed, it took several years to accumulate the manpower and material to assure construction. Kimball Health Services began operation on August 21, 1950, at a cost of $223,000, financed with the bond issue, Hill-Burton funds, and philanthropic resources. From this modest beginning, KHS has grown into a modern, efficient medical facility, serving patients and their families throughout western Nebraska, eastern Wyoming and northeastern Colorado.
