History
History of Saint Marys Hospital
After a devastating tornado ripped through Rochester in 1883 Mother Alfred Moes and the Sisters of Saint Francis proposed building a hospital to aid the sick and injured in Southern Minnesota on the condition that William Worrall Mayo and his sons provide the medical service They agreed and in 1889 Saint Marys Hospital opened with 27 beds It expanded continually over the years to meet the needs of the Mayo Clinic practice

One of the hospitals largest expansion projects was the Mary Brigh Building additions in 1980 The addition added a 50room surgical suite and more than 100 new intensive care beds to the hospital In 1997 another major expansion was completed with the addition of more intensive care beds an expanded Cardiac Laboratory and the Mayo Eugenio Litta Childrens Hospital

In 1986 Mayo Clinic Rochester Methodist Hospital and Saint Marys Hospital integrated their operations under one governing board to more efficiently serve the needs of Mayo patients As a part of that agreement a special Sponsorship Board was created to ensure that the spiritual values integral to the hospitals history are perpetuated
