ABOUT DEKALB HEALTH
DeKalb Health, located in Auburn, Indiana, opened its doors in 1964 as DeKalb Memorial Hospital, thanks to the voluntary contributions of the citizens of DeKalb County. The independent, not-for-profit, acute care facility, features a wide variety of inpatient and outpatient services. It has achieved many milestones along the way, including the opening of Emergency Medical Services addition in 1975 and the completion of a three-story medical building in 1992. In the last decade, numerous expansions and renovations have brought the facilities up to date, and in May 2008 the Surgical Center began welcoming patients.
Comprehensive renovations to the Emergency, Imaging and Diagnostic Centers were completed in 2011. DeKalb Health is guided by its mission to “promote, preserve and restore health” and its vision “to be the healthcare organization of choice for patients, physicians, payers and healthcare professionals.” To learn more, visit dekalbhealth.com.
