In 2001, Community Development Block Grant (CBDG) funding was awarded by Idaho Commerce to construct the Clearwater Valley Hospital & Clinic located in Orofino, Idaho.

The hospital is still in use today, providing critical services to the community and surrounding areas.

As part of their healthcare mission, St. Mary’s and Clearwater Valley Hospitals partnered to acquire or establish satellite medical clinics in Kamiah, Kooskia, Nezperce, Craigmont, Pierce, Cottonwood, Grangeville and Orofino.

Last year, the hospital hosted approximately 45,000 patient visits.
