The Ganta United Methodist Hospital is administered by the United Methodist Church of Liberia. The hospital was established in 1926 by Dr. George Way Harley, a Methodist Missionary from North Carolina, the USA. What began as a rural health post has today grown to a regional referral hospital.
Ganta Hospital is located in Nimba County. The primary catchment area of the hospital is Ganta and its environs, which includes portions of Guinea Forest Region with catchment area about 70 kilometers radius. Because Ganta falls within the population belt of northcentral Liberia, about 60% of the residents of Nimba County are beneficiaries of their health care programs. Thus, the hospital has an estimated catchment population of approximately 277,215 (60% of population of Nimba County 462,026).
