History

When the Holy Cross Hospital was founded in 1875 by the Sisters of the Holy Cross and Bartholomew, it had just thirteen beds and three doctors who worked without payment. It was the second hospital established in Utah. [1] St. Mary's Academy and College of Saint Mary-of-the-Wasatch both had cooperative programs with the hospital. [2]

One of the few Catholic hospitals in Utah for over a century, it was sold by the Sisters of the Holy Cross in 1994 to the for-profit institution, HealthTrust. The hospital's name was then briefly changed to Legacy Medical Center, before being changed to Salt Lake Regional Medical Center. [3] Due to antitrust concerns raised by the Federal Trade Commission, the hospital was then sold to Champion Healthcare Corporation in 1995. [4] However, the facility changed hands again in 1998 when Champion merged with Paracelsus Healthcare Corporation.[ citation needed ]

Subsequently, Iasis Healthcare managed the medical center between 2001 and September 2017. When it acquired Iasis, Steward Health Care began to maintain the hospital. [5] [6]

In May 2023, Salt Lake Regional Medical Center was acquired by CommonSpirit Health. [7] The facility was one of several Utah hospitals purchased by the Catholic health care system maintained by Centura Health. Following the acquisition, the hospital was given its current name, Holy Cross Hospital - Salt Lake. This name pays homage to the Sisters of the Holy Cross and the institution's original name. [8]
