History of Grant Memorial Hospital
Grant Memorial Hospital opened in April 1958 to provide inpatient and outpatient services to the citizens of the Upper South Branch Valley. The opening culminated more than two (2) years of work by many dedicated officials and citizens of the area.
In late 1955 the Petersburg Kiwanis Club learned that Grant County could qualify for Federal Hill-Burton construction funds to construct a hospital for the area. A survey of the people was held to determine whether or not there was interest in taking advantage of this opportunity. The initial moves were taken through the Grant county Press under the direction of Ralph Welton. The response of the citizens was an overwhelming enthusiasm for the project. The Grant County Commission initiated an investigation on how the project might be financed in addition to the Hill-Burton Funds. The site for the hospital was donated by the Grove heirs on historic Fort Hill overlooking Petersburg with a commanding view in three directions.
