History

Founded in 1903, Milton Hospital began operations as a convalescent home. 1903 saw the Cunningham Foundation offer a portion of the Edward Cunningham Estate for future development and expansion of the services offered at that time. Milton Hospital was officially incorporated in 1903 with just nine beds.^[2]

In 1944, the current site of Milton Hospital was finalized with the purchase of land from the Pierce Estate. The newly constructed hospital building finally opened its doors in 1950. In 1987, a new patient service wing and main entrance were added. Renovations provided space for several departments, namely; emergency department, ambulatory care unit, diagnostic services department, intensive care/coronary care unit, operating suites and a conference area.^[2]
