History

The Catholic Sisters of Providence order was asked to expand their healthcare offerings on the east side of Portland in 1937. [1] At that time, Archbishop Edward D. Howard requested that the order construct a hospital, originally to be named St. Vincent Hospital East, in reference to the existing St. Vincent Hospital (now Providence St. Vincent Medical Center), which at that time was located in Northwest Portland. [1] The next year the Sisters' plans to build a hospital in the Laurelhurst area were approved and they began buying property at Northeast 47th and Glisan. [1]

Providence Hospital opened in September 1941. [1] A new cancer tower was constructed in the late 2000s, which added 150 new inpatient beds.[ citation needed ] The 11 story tower houses cancer, surgery, and state-of-the-art patient care facilities. In 2011, the last nuns housed at a convent located within the main building left the facility. [1]
