St. Vincent Hospital » Administration and Board of Directors

St. Vincent Hospital serves the rural area of Lake County and North America’s highest city of Leadville, Colorado. In 1879 the Sisters of Charity of Leavenworth, Kansas opened Leadville’s hospital to care for the hardscrabble miners that were drawn to the community. Now celebrating over 140 years, St. Vincent Hospital continues the tradition of caring for the residents and visitors of Lake County and surrounding areas.

Update from Our CEO

Dear Community Partner:

2020 is upon us and we have a lot to celebrate. The coming year is filled with both promise and opportunity for St. Vincent Hospital.

As we look back at 2019, every success leads to a sustainable and healthy hospital district that will serve Lake County long into the future.

With your support and shared vision, St. Vincent:

Began construction of our new hospital and secured USDA low-interest financing for the lions’ share of construction.
Attained financial margins and patient volumes that are unprecedented in this hospital’s recent history. We increased 2019 inpatient volume over 2018 by approximately 20 percent.
Became re-accredited in regulatory compliance and quality by both Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Service (CMS) and DNV-GL, the top accreditation bodies in the nation.
Brought new services to our community, including cardiac testing, an orthopedic specialty clinic, sleep studies and transfusions.
Replaced aging medical equipment and began fundraising and saving for the new hospital’s equipment needs.
Surveyed our stakeholders and community to create a new brand for St. Vincent Hospital, which will be launched in 2020. Please see the preview later in this newsletter; keep scrolling!

Thanks for sharing in my pride and enthusiasm with this impressive partial list. I can only imagine how satisfying it will be to look back at 2020. Thank you for your continued partnership with St. Vincent Hospital.

Here’s to 2020, and to you!

With Gratitude,

Gary Campbell, RN, MBA
