Your Hospital District
Grand River Hospital District is here to serve the 27,000+ individuals within our 1500 square-mile service territory. The District accomplishes this through the dedication of over 550 employees and over 100 affiliated physicians.
About 90% of our revenue is generated from payment we receive for patient care. This revenue goes to support operating expenses such as paying doctors, nurses, and other employees and purchasing patient care supplies. About 10% of our revenue is generated from tax dollars. This money allows Grand River Hospital District to pay for buildings, equipment, and infrastructure to ensure that we will be able to provide local healthcare for many years to come. It also allows us to provide charity and sliding-scale care to those in need. We strive to be good stewards of your investment in community healthcare. Although only 10% of total revenue comes from tax dollars, this support is the key to our ability to provide exceptional local healthcare so you don’t have to leave home in order to receive the best possible care.
Grand River Hospital District is governed by an elected Board of Directors – seven individuals who represent the interests of the communities we serve. Our Chief Executive Officer, Jim Coombs, is responsible for management of the District’s facilities and employees. Along with our 550+ employees, he ensures that the Board’s strategy for providing exceptional local healthcare is carried out.

Our History
In 1961, voters approved the formation of a special taxing district, Grand River Hospital District, to ensure the availability of local healthcare. One year later, the District opened Claggett Memorial Hospital and began serving patients.
The district has come a long way since then!
Today, your Hospital District serves you through the following facilities:
- Grand River Hospital and Medical Center
