Western Baptist Hospital Foundation

The history of Western Baptist Hospital, now Baptist Health Paducah, began as a simple thought in the hearts of people dedicated to bringing health and healing home to our community. Over time, the hospital has grown and changed, but our hearts are still in the same place: our community. 

The spirit of humanity and the gift of charity that opened the doors to Western Baptist more than 50 years ago, in the fall of 1953, are still very evident today. The hospital has established its Foundation, affording families and individuals the opportunity to make financial contributions to the hospital to support needed services, facilities and other areas of growth.
