Kyabram and District Memorial Community Hospital was built as a commemoration to those who died in service or were killed in action during World War Two.  The foundation plaque for the hospital was laid by William McMaster Smith on the 9th November 1958.

The hospital has recently undergone major renovations. 

Kyabram has raised £20,000 for a new memorial hospital. The new 32 -bed memorial hospital will be on a site of more than six acres, fronting Tehan street. Trees have been planted already in the Memorial Drive. Memorial gates at the site were unveiled last year by the Governor, Sir Dallas Brooks.
