History

History
In 1925 concerned citizens purchased the Corbett Mansion on Riverside Drive now the site of Lourdes main campus to become a 25bed hospital Bishop Daniel Curley of Syracuse asked the Daughters of Charity pioneers in Catholic health and hospital service to come to Binghamton to manage the new hospital

The Daughters known for their compassionate caring continue the tradition that began more than 365 years ago in France by St Vincent de Paul In the early 1800s Elizabeth Ann Seton the first Americanborn saint began the Daughters Mission in the United States

The Daughters commitment to Lourdes throughout this century has provided the Southern Tier with an impressive series of health care quotfirstsquot recovery room intensive care unit Hospice Electrodiagnostic Laboratory and Regional Care Center

While much has changed in the community and at Lourdes since its inception as a 25bed hospital the commitment of the Daughters of Charity and their Mission of caring remains constant into the new century

Effective November 1 1999 the Daughters of Charity National Health System DCNHS and the Sisters of St Joseph Health System SSJHS merged into a cosponsored Catholic health ministry known as Ascension Health Ascension Health has more than 100000 employees who work in 20 states and the District of Columbia Lourdes is now a member of Ascension Health and continues to serve the community in which we live

Much has changed in the community and at Lourdes since a small 25bed hospital opened on Riverside Drive more than 80 years ago but there remains one constant the commitment of the Daughters of Charity and their Mission of caring We invite you to explore the many excellent health care services we provide
