| Located in Sandpoint, Idaho, BGH is the hub of a growing medical community, with a medical staff of over 40 physicians. Sandpoint is a city of approximately 7,000 persons with the service to a population of 50,000 reaching to the Canadian border, the western fringe of Montana, and the eastern border of Washington. | |
| BGH has the unique advantage of being at the heart of a recreational four-season paradise. With a major ski resort on one side and Lake Pend Oreille bordering on the other side, our recreational nature is an attractive lure for drawing the best of the best. | |
| We invite you to take a tour and see the services we have to offer, our job opportunities and the special features that make BGH the "Where the Technology of Medicine Meets the Art of Care" Hospital. We like what we do and it shows! |
| Bonner General Hospital was incorporated in 1949 and has a colorful, if not watery, beginning. The first hospital was a single story wooden structure that was barged 25 miles on Lake Pend Oreille. The original hospital was an old infirmary building used at the once active Farragut Naval Training Station, located on the southern tip of Lake Pend Oreille. | |
| Even though the hospital was rebuilt decades ago, it still sits on its original site along the banks of Sand Creek. | |
| In 1992, The Creekside Health Center was built to provide a unique physicians' complex which houses various medical practices as well as a large, well-equipped conference room. | |
| In 1999, the 50th birthday of BGH, the new addition was completed and houses a spacious and state-of -the-art surgical services center, a rooftop helipad, private treatment and counseling rooms, and many of the hospital's outpatient services. | |
| While health care has drastically changed from the days of the single-story wooden infirmary, the people side of BGH continues to show the same warmth and friendliness of that first small-town hospital. |
