Bringing world-class healthcare home to DeKalb. Thanks to the vision of our leadership, DeKalb Health has taken numerous steps forward. While many of our milestones are in plain sight – such as the new ER, eICU, registration area, Imaging, Laboratory, and Respiratory Centers – many of our achievements are behind the scenes. We have forged new partnerships with physician groups, so that people in our region now have access to almost every medical specialty right here on our campus. We have also made significant investments in new technology, such as a state-of-the-art monitoring system for critically ill patients and the move to electronic medical records. Most importantly, our people continue to distinguish themselves as the most compassionate caregivers you’ll find anywhere, and we continue to donate time and resources in support of schools, businesses, and organizations to ensure a strong, healthy community. At DeKalb Health, we have reaffirmed our commitment to being your independent, not-for-profit community hospital. With every new investment, we’re bringing world-class healthcare home to you.
