WHEREAS, Olney Hamilton Hospital officially marked the |
|
|
opening of the Olney Family Clinic and Rehab/Wellness Center on |
|
|
January 26, 2013; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The hospital itself has a long and rich history in |
|
|
the community; Dr. George B. Hamilton established the original |
|
|
facility in a single-story building in 1908, and within six years he |
|
|
had built a two-story structure on the town's main street; a brick |
|
|
building took its place in 1927 on the current site, and at the time |
|
|
it was built, it was regarded as one of the most modern and |
|
|
best-equipped hospitals west of Fort Worth; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Today, Olney Hamilton Hospital serves as a critical |
|
|
access provider for parts of three counties in North Central Texas; |
|
|
over the years, it has grown to offer 25 beds with three resident |
|
|
physicians and professional services in the areas of family |
|
|
practice, obstetrics, general surgery, and emergency care; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, With the addition of this notable new facility, |
|
|
citizens of Olney will gain even greater access to top-notch health |
|
|
care professionals and rehabilitation and wellness programs for |
|
|
improved long-term health; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
R |
|
|
ESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 83rd Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby congratulate Olney Hamilton Hospital on the |
|
|
opening of the Olney Family Clinic and Rehab/Wellness Center and |
|
|
extend to all those associated with the institution sincere best |
|
|
wishes for the future. |
