A bit of history.
R.R. Wilson, a Grant County Pioneer, wrote a letter in 1946 to the Board of County Commissioners offering $100,000 towards building a hospital in Ulysses. Later, a city block on north Main was donated, a bond was issued and another $100,000 was raised from the community. Bob Wilson has grown over the years with a new addition or renovation nearly every decade since its inception and has grown to meet the ever-changing needs of the community.

Dedicated to your healing in mind, body and spirit.
We believe every health care journey begins with a dedication to healing body, mind and spirit. Our faith-based mission and approach to holistic health is essential to a person’s overall wellness. Chaplains are health care professionals who bring all the resources of spiritual and pastoral care to help our patients, their families and friends better cope with the challenges of a hospital visit and provide spiritual guidance through prayer, ritual, sacrament, or help our patients connect to their religious communities.
