Columbus Community Hospital is a 25-bed acute care facility offering a wide range of inpatient and outpatient services. A Board of Directors comprised of community leaders and physician representatives governs the hospital. In addition to its 240 employees, a group of over 100 volunteers provide valuable services to the hospital in a variety of areas. Philanthropic support is provided through the Columbus Community Hospital Foundation which was established in 1989.
We offer inpatient services, diagnostic services, home oxygen therapy, and Lifeline Personal Response services.
Our Emergency Room is staffed 24 hours a day by Madison Emergency Physicians. These specialists, who work expressly in emergency medicine, are all board certified in emergency medicine. Urgent Care services, also staffed by MEP, are offered 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. weekdays and 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. weekends and holidays.
