St. Elizabeth Hospital was built in the 1950s when the community came together to ensure a thriving hospital was available for a thriving town. Today, it’s a place of healing and recovery under the leadership of Hospital President and Chief Nursing Officer, John Swanhorst. Hear more from John about why the hospital provides connected care that meets the unique needs of our Fort Morgan neighbors.

At St. Elizabeth Hospital, we know that true health leadership comes from strong partnerships. We’re celebrating an act of collaboration from our local Morgan County Ambulance Service - MCAS.

MCAS has generously donated a radio station to our hospital, which will improve our ability to communicate and coordinate care. This gift isn't just equipment, it's a testament to how organizations work together for the health and safety of our community.
