Canonsburg Hospital

From WikiMD's Wellness Encyclopedia

Canonsburg Hospital, part of the Allegheny Health Network of Pittsburgh, United States, is a community hospital located just outside Canonsburg, Pennsylvania in North Strabane Township. It was founded in 1904, when, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, “the Women's Shakespeare Club of Canonsburg solicited donations of ‘linens, supplies, a hen and brood of chickens and a generous supply of fruit’ for what turned out to be an ambitious if not unusual project for a literary club. ... [But], as history records, this Women's Shakespeare Club's project ended well and proved to be much ado about something pretty special: medical care. For what the Women's Shakespeare Club of Canonsburg started [was] Canonsburg General Hospital.”,
