About
Community pride. Self-reliance. Commitment to purpose. The history of the hospitals in Newberry County is a testimony to these enduring qualities. From its earliest days, the county was blessed with many dedicated doctors, but a community hospital was only a dream until 1925. Acting in a strong tradition of self-reliance, the citizens of Newberry County decided to work together to make that dream a reality. A community meeting was held December 11, 1923, and the Newberry County Hospital Association was formed to direct the funding and building of this much needed facility. Local citizens bought stock to finance the hospital. School children collected pennies and nickels. The people even gave a "linen shower" for their hospital. Thus it was a moment of great community pride when Newberry County Hospital formally opened its doors on December 22, 1925. In 1937, the African-American community demonstrated these same qualities of community pride, self-reliance, and commitment to purpose in establishing a second hospital. The People's Hospital, as it was called, was under the direction of J.E. Grant, Sr., M.D. The African-American community organized service clubs throughout the county to supplement the hospital financially. A vegetable garden and poultry operation also offered additional support. In January 1952, the People's Hospital merged with Newberry County Memorial Hospital.
