Our Mission

Barrett Hospital & HealthCare provides compassionate care, healing, and health-improving service to all community members throughout life's journey. Our History

"There may be larger hospitals but there will be none better." ~Martin Barrett
In 1922, Martin Barrett built the main building of "Barrett Hospital" in Dillon for $100,000. Joseph Shineberger and Margaret Roe also contributed $50,000 to create an endowed fund. James Guild, the table linens were sewn by the Methodist Ladies Aid Society and the Methodist Sunday School furnished canned fruit, vegetables and jellies. Hospital garments were sewn by the Ladies of St. Rose and towels for the operating room were hemmed by the Presbyterian Ladies. Other community donors furnished rooms, provided specific pieces of equipment and contributed financially to the construction and furnishings. "

This is an accounting of the original Barrett Hospital grand opening in 1922, which is taken from "A History of Healthcare in Beaverhead County". This publication details the very first settlers to the county and the physicians who traveled through or set up in the Beaverhead, centennial, and Big Hole Valleys. The original Barrett Hospital served the community for 50 years, and a replacement facility was completed in 1972. It underwent several extensive renovations, additions and upgrades over the next 39 years. Today, Barrett Hospital & HealthCare has a modern facility completed in 2012, with a team of Physicians, Physician Assistants and Nurse Practitioners, more than 40 nurses and more than 255 employees that provide services to more than 12,000 people in our service area.

🎃👻 Community Reminder: Trick-or-Treating Safety Tips! 👻🎃

Halloween is almost here — and our community is getting ready for a night full of fun, costumes, and candy! 🍬 As you head out to celebrate, please take a moment to review these important safety reminders to help keep everyone safe this spooky season. 🧡

🚸 Stranger Danger & Tricky People
Children should never enter a home or car for treats.
Older kids should travel in groups and use a “buddy system” to look out for one another.
Report any suspicious activity to law enforcement right away.
Make sure your child knows when and how to call 9-1-1 if they get lost or need help.

🏡 Prepare Your Home for Trick-or-Treaters
Clear porches and walkways of tripping hazards like hoses, toys, and bikes.
Sweep away wet leaves to prevent slips and falls.
Check outdoor lights and replace any burned-out bulbs.
Secure pets so they don’t accidentally jump on or scare trick-or-treaters.

🚦 Halloween Street Smarts
Halloween night can be one of the most dangerous for young pedestrians — let’s change that!
Always accompany young children while trick-or-treating.
Encourage older kids to plan their route, stay with friends, and carry flashlights or glow sticks.
Stay alert and avoid distractions like phones or headphones.
Cross at crosswalks, not mid-block, and never assume cars will stop.
Stick to well-lit streets and visit homes with porch lights on.

Let’s all do our part to make Halloween safe, fun, and memorable for every child in our community! 🧡🎃
