This week we’re having a conversation with Nancy Zimmerman, Administrator of Comanche County Hospital, in Coldwater, Kansas.  Comanche County Hospital was recognized by the National Rural Health Association as a 2017 Top 20 Critical Access Hospital Best Practice in Patient Satisfaction.

“My only qualification was that was that I wanted to make sure this
hospital would be here forever, and that was 27 years ago.” 

Nancy Zimmerman grew up on a farm and attended a small school with 7 students in her 8th grade class.  She went to a consolidated high school with 48 in her graduating class, the largest ever.  Nancy attended Wesley School of Nursing in Wichita, Kansas, and upon graduation, came back home.  She still lives in the same county.

Nancy is married with 4 children and 5 grandchildren.
