Mineral Area Regional Medical Center

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

Mineral Area Regional Medical Center was a 98-bed osteopathic hospital located in Farmington, Missouri. It was founded in 1952 by a group of seven area physicians as a not-for-profit, community hospital. In 2006, it was sold to Community Health Systems, a for-profit company, and in 2008, it was sold again to Capella Healthcare. The hospital was accredited by the American Osteopathic Association's Healthcare Facilities Accreditation Program.

On May 1, 2015, BJC HealthCare, owner of Farmington's other hospital, Parkland Health Center, took ownership of Mineral Area Hospital. BJC renamed the hospital to 'Parkland Health Center - Weber Road' and consolidated operations into Parkland's Liberty Road campus. After only nine months of ownership, BJC closed the former Mineral Area Regional Medical Center on January 19, 2016.

Mineral Area Regional Medical Center was also home to the Mineral Area School of Radiologic Technology from 1983 to 2009.
