ABOUT CMC
Coulee Medical Center is a 25-bed Trauma Level IV Critical Access Hospital with a very important job: to serve the healthcare needs of our rural community with the best in patient care, medical expertise, and personalized service.
Based out of our new state-of-the-art, 66,000-square-foot facility near the famous Grand Coulee Dam, we provide professional medical services to the residents and visitors of the greater Grand Coulee area, the five surrounding counties, and the nearby Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation. We treat their wounds. We deliver their babies. We heal their pain. We nurture their well-being.
It is a big responsibility, and one that we are proud to have. Because to us, they are more than patients. They are neighbors, friends, family and community. And their health comes first.
History
The Coulee Medical Center legacy stretches back more than 70 years to the construction of Grand Coulee Dam and a community need for quality healthcare for the people who built and now operate one of the world’s largest hydroelectric projects.
The Coulee Medical Center legacy stretches back more than 70 years to the construction of Grand Coulee Dam and a community need for quality healthcare for the people who built and now operate one of the world’s largest hydroelectric projects.
Built in 1934 as Mason City Hospital, the hospital was originally a two-story wood frame building located strategically next to the construction of Grand Coulee Dam to meet the emergency health needs of workers and their families. In 1960, Mason City Hospital became the privately owned Coulee Community Hospital and was relocated to a new facility in the city of Grand Coulee.
In 1990, a multi-county tax district was formed to provide financial support for the hospital, which was designated as a trauma level IV critical access hospital facility to provide trauma care to the surrounding rural communities.
In 2010, the hospital built its new 66,000-square-foot facility in Grand Coulee, complete with state-of-the-art technology, equipment and exam rooms. Known today as Coulee Medical Center, the organization operates an emergency department, a surgery department, inpatient and outpatient clinics, a long-term swing unit, a women’s health and birthing department, a family medicine clinic, lab and radiology services, and a satellite clinic in Coulee City.
