Our Story
Ohio County Hospital Corporation, known as Ohio County Healthcare, began its journey in 1936 with the vision of Dr. Marion Crowder, who established a medical clinic in Hartford. The dream evolved into reality when Dr. Oscar Allen secured funding for a hospital, leading to the opening of a 30-bed facility in 1956, thanks to the generosity of Leslie B. Carden. Over the years, the hospital has expanded and renovated to meet the growing healthcare needs of the community, now offering a comprehensive range of services.
