Ensuring critical access to care now and into the future
Maintaining quality healthcare in our communities
Providing longterm care options in our region
Rural hospitals and clinics are closing at an alarming rate.
What would happen if you couldn’t get the care you need…when you need it?
Rural Health Research reports that between 2005 and 2022, 186 rural hospitals closed. Nineteen of these closures occurred in 2020 – the most of any year in the past decade.
And there are more closures to come: Becker Healthcare reports that 13 North Dakota hospitals (33%) are at risk of closing. 5 are at immediate risk of closing in the next 2-3 years.
If nothing is done to mitigate this problem, that means 11.7 million patients could lose much-needed healthcare access in the U.S.
We understand how important it is for you to be able to access quality healthcare for you and your loved ones when you need it.

The Inspiration Behind Our New Logo
Our new Mountrail County Health Foundation logo was inspired by the Bethel Chapel cross, originally in the Blaisdell Church, which was one of the original churches overseeing our Nursing Home. It has since closed down, but the altar furniture,
two pews and this cross were brought to the Bethel Chapel to be their new home.
The IHS in the middle of the cross is a Latin abbreviation for the Greek Word Jesus: IHSOUS
