Now in its 48th year of serving the health and well-being of our community, Liberty Hospital has more than 1,700 employees and 330 physicians who deliver compassionate, high-quality care using state-of-the-art technology.  Liberty Hospital’s expansion in recent years includes 15 primary and specialty care clinics, as well as affiliations with MU Health Care for orthopedic surgeons and Saint Luke’s Cancer Institute.  The hospital holds the unique distinction of being the only hospital in the Northland to receive Level 3 Geriatric Emergency Department Accreditation and is only one of four hospitals in the state to attain this accreditation in addition to Level II Time Critical Diagnosis in trauma, stroke and heart attack.  Liberty Hospital is a public hospital and is a political subdivision district hospital under Chapter 206 of the Revised Statues of Missouri.  It is governed by a six-member, publicly elected board of trustees who serve six-year terms.
