ThedaCare Regional Medical Center–Neenah
Theda Clark Medical Center is located in Neenah, Wisconsin and part of the ThedaCare healthcare system and member of the ThedaCare Regional Medical Center-Neenah/Mayo Clinic Care Network. The hospital is dedicated to Theda Clark Peters, daughter of Charles B. Clark and a renowned community activist herself, who died in 1903 at her home while giving birth. [1] Recognizing the extreme need for an area hospital, her family donated $96,000 to build a hospital in 1909 in her memory, and later donated another $50,000 to establish a fund to pay for care for those who couldn't afford it. [2]
Theda Clark Hospital was the first in the area to provide things such as:
- Aylward Outpatient Surgery, Stroke Center, Eye Center, and rehabilitation facilities.
- ThedaStar air medical helicopter (first in state outside of Madison and Milwaukee)
- Single-room maternity suites.
