History

On November 27 1894 The Kingston Hospital located in a twostory wooden building on Broadway opened its doors to its first patients In its initial year of operation the City of Kingston Hospital treated 56 patients The number of patients staff and facilities continued to grow until the Hospital suffered a setback in 1926 On February 20 a fire destroyed nearly onethird of the original hospital leaving just two fireproof wings and a rear addition standing No one was hurt and an ambitious building campaign allowed the reconstructed hospital to reopen the following year

In 1940 the name of the Hospital changed from the City of Kingston Hospital to The Kingston Hospital The Hospital underwent major renovations and expansions in the 1950s and 1960s to provide the community with the most uptodate medical services

Today The Kingston Hospital is a 160bed acute care hospital specializing in medicalsurgical care ambulatory surgery diagnostic imaging emergency obstetrics inpatient and outpatient physical medicine rehabilitation inpatient and outpatient substance abuse detox and rehabilitation and acute and chronic renal dialysis services
