History

After WWII, the two main competing hospitals in St. Joseph were St. Joseph Hospital (also known as Sisters Hospital) at 10th and Powell Streets and the newer Missouri Methodist Hospital at 8th and Faraon Streets, which opened in 1924. [3] [4] Adjacent to the Missouri Methodist Hospital at 9th and Faraon streets stood Mercy Hospital, a smaller 50-bed osteopathic hospital. In 1956, Missouri Methodist Hospital purchased Mercy Hospital and converted it into a 35-bed annex in 1957 to handle their increased patient volume. [4] [5] [6] The 1950s also saw the construction of Carder Hall, a dormitory for student nurses at Missouri Methodist Hospital, named in honor of Dr. Carder, the hospital's head at the time. In the 1960s, the hospital dropped "Missouri" from its name, becoming simply Methodist Hospital. This remained the name until the 1970s, when it was further renamed Methodist Medical Center. [4]

In the late 1970s, St. Joseph Hospital determined it needed a new building. It purchased 39 acres of land at Riverside Road and Faraon Street and hired the architecture and engineering firm Henningson, Durham, and Richardson to oversee the construction of the new hospital. By 1983, Missouri Methodist Medical Center and St. Joseph Hospital had agreed to combine into a single organization and form Heartland Health Affiliates. This led to a name change for the original downtown facility to Heartland West. [3] [4] [7] [8] Heartland West experienced a decline in usage, was ultimately abandoned by Heartland Health, and was demolished in 2006. [4] [9]

In May 2012, the hospital joined the Mayo Clinic Care Network, expanding its healthcare partnerships. [10] In June of that same year, the Heartland Health System announced it would begin the transition to a new name: Mosaic Life Care. [11] [12] The hospital was officially renamed on November 12, 2014. [13]
