History

Mercy Health Tiffin Hospital opened in October 1913. Its origin begins a few years earlier when the Rev. Thomas F. Conlon and Rev. Joseph Schrembs discussed building a charity hospital for the community. Seven acres of land were purchased for the construction of a four-story fireproof building. The new hospital cost approximately $75,000. [2] [3]

Schrembs requested that three Sisters of Mercy from their convent in Grand Rapids, Michigan be sent to administer the new hospital. [2]

The original building was demolished in 2008 and replaced with a modern facility capable of housing 51 beds. [4]
