Originally opened to care for our community in 1914, today Southwest Memorial Hospital is a 25-bed critical access hospital offering the latest in medical and surgical technology, 24/7 emergency care, a vast array of out-patient medical and wellness services, and much more. Serving the Four Corners area, Southwest Memorial Hospital is staffed by almost 400 employees including highly trained and skilled physicians, nurses, technicians, administrators, and support staff in a variety of capacities. Our hospital is an affiliate of Southwest Health System, Inc. which operates as a not-for-profit corporation and is governed by a volunteer board of directors. The board convenes on the first Wednesday of each month at 4:00 p.m. in the hospital's Kiva Room. The public is invited to attend the open portion of the meetings.
