This
picture shows the hospital when construction first began in 1918.
This building still remains today and is known as the G wing. Established
by the Sisters of Mercy, St. Rita’s opened its doors early due to
a flu epidemic. |
 |
Built
in 1947, the second addition to the hospital created space for additional
patient beds. This building is known today as the F wing. |
 |
Now
known as the E wing, the third addition was built in the 1960's. At
that time the main entrance to the medical center was off Market Street. |
 |
Currently
St. Rita's Medical Center is licensed for 437 beds. Several expansions
and additions over the years have created the building that serves
as the heart of the medical center campus today. The front half of
the medical center, known as the AB towers, were built in the 1980's
as part of the New Century Project. |
