Celebrating over 50 years of meeting your health care needs. "Our family, caring for your family yesterday, today and tomorrow."

Fayette County Memorial Hospitals tradition of caring began in 1944 with a small group of civic minded individuals who sought to provide the community with a modern, well equipped hospital. As a result of their dedication, Memorial Hospital, named in honor of the countys servicemen and women of all wars opened its doors on May 8, 1950. For over five decades, FCMH has been a part of this community. Our families, physicians and employees work here just as you and your family. We understand the importance good health plays in your life and we continually strive to provide you with the most advanced health care to help you enjoy life to the fullest, not just today, but tomorrow as well.

This has been our mission for over fifty years and will be for the next fifty and beyond. Fayette County Memorial Hospital, our tradition of caring continues.
