St. Michael's Health Centre is a specialist hospital located in Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada. It offers a range of rehabilitation, palliative, and continuing care services within the Chinook Health Region. The hospital provides care for 156 continuing care residents, 36 rehabilitation patients, and 10 palliative care patients in a home-like environment.

History[edit | edit source]

St. Michael's General Hospital was opened by the Sisters of St. Martha in 1929. In 1955, a municipal hospital was built nearby, which is now the location of the current Chinook Regional Hospital. Both hospitals underwent expansions until 1960 when it was decided to rebuild the municipal hospital and transform St. Michael's into a long-term care facility.
