Old Isisford District Hospital
The requirement for a hospital and a doctor, to serve the medical needs of the town and district, was recognised by 1887. In 1891 a provisional hospital committee was formed. It quickly raised with another promised. A public meeting in October 1891 appointed a permanent hospital committee, which by April 1892 had complied with the regulations of the Hospitals' Act 1862 and was eligible for a government subsidy. An application for a site on which to erect the hospital buildings was made to the Department of Public Lands and a hospital reserve was subsequently created. In September 1892 the committee had in funds available and the hospital was under construction. At the end of October 1892, the committee was advertising for a matron and a wardsman, and by February the following year the hospital was treating patients.
