Welcome to Lawrence Memorial Hospital. LMH, in collaboration with its medical staff, is dedicated to providing personal and high-quality health and wellness services for the people of Lawrence and the extended community. Each day, LMH seeks to be the BEST community hospital by exceeding the expectations of those we serve.

Founded in 1921, LMH is a 173-bed hospital located in Lawrence, Kan. Through the years, hospital additions have been built and health care services have expanded—a trend that continues today. In the next few years, LMH will be embarking on a $40 million campus expansion. The project will include the expansion of the Emergency Department, Maternity and Surgical Services. The Intensive Care Unit will be renovated and the hospital will make all patient care rooms private.

LMH continues to be a community-owned, not-for-profit hospital that serves the health care needs of the community regardless of an individual's ability to pay. LMH receives no tax support from the city of Lawrence or Douglas County. Dedicated to improving the health of the community, LMH invests all excess revenues in services, equipment and facilities which further that mission.

The hospital is accredited by the Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO). In addition, hospital services are surveyed by a variety of other accrediting agencies.
