The Halstead Hospital, originally known as the Hertzler Hospital, was a hospital in Halstead, Kansas, founded by Arthur E. Hertzler in 1902 in an eight-room residence. Following the death of Hertzler's daughter Agnes Hertzler Huebert in 1925, the hospital's name was changed to the Agnes Hertzler Memorial Hospital.
In 1932, the hospital was given by Hertzler to the Sisters of Saint Joseph of Wichita. Over the years, the hospital expanded into a complex of buildings with a size of over 260,000 square feet.
The hospital closed in 2002. In spite of efforts to re-use the hospital buildings for medical purposes, the premises were eventually put up for auction in 2022.
