Construction started in 1947 and the hospital opened on May 24, 1949. Donations from the community helped in its completion.[2]
In 1983 a new wing was added to the hospital and while the old wing was converted to a nursing home called Duncan MacMillan Nursing Home.[3] The new wing is called the Eastern Shore Memorial Hospital.
