Santiam Hospital is a hospital in Stayton in the U.S. state of Oregon. Established in 1953, the 40-bed facility serves eastern Marion County and the suburbs of Salem.
History
A non-profit group was created in 1950 by civic leaders in the Stayton area with the goal of creating a hospital to serve the community.[1] Funds to build the hospital were raised by subscription.[2] In March 1953, Santiam Memorial Hospital opened.[3] The hospital looked to expand by adding six beds in 1961 at a cost of about $90,000,[4] but the lack of a sewer system in the city hampered the project.[5] In 1968, the facility began working to build a helipad.[6] On March 11, 1983, a nursing station at the hospital was robbed at gunpoint by a man seeking drugs.[7] It was one of five hospitals in Oregon as of 2007 that did not participate in reporting errors to the Oregon Patient Safety Commission.[8] An expansion that doubled the size of the facility ended in 2012,[1] and the next year the name was shortened to Santiam Hospital.[9]
Operations
Santiam has 40 licensed beds, and staffs all 40 of the beds.[10][11] The hospital serves the eastern portions of Marion County in the Salem area. The state of Oregon classifies the hospital as a type B rural hospital.[12] Services at the facility include emergency services, eye health, cardiology, maternity, surgery, pharmacy, radiology, breast health, cardiac rehabilitation, and orthopedic services, among others.[13] For 2013, the hospital had a total of 1,017 discharges, with 3,643 patient days, and 10,507 emergency room visits, plus 36,559 outpatient visits.[11] Also that year were 114 births and 403 inpatient surgeries.[10] Financially, in 2013 Mount Hood Medical Center had $69,539,308 in gross patient revenues, provided $1,453,998 in charity care, had $38,818,184 total in operating expenses, and an income of $79,194.[11]
