St. Peter's Hospital ~ About St. Peter's Hospital History

Our History

In 1883 the St.Peter's Episcopal Church parish vestry and the Montana Episcopal Diocese established St. Peter's Hospital.

On December 15, 1887 a permanent hospital was built. It contained seven private rooms, a chapel, a reading room, a ten-patient ward, a room for contagious cases and an operating room.
St. Peter's conducted a training school for nurses from 1909 to 1933.

In 1968 the hospital occupied the present building at 2475 Broadway. The building has undergone many internal and external changes over the years. Two additions have been added, one in 1982 and one in 1992. In 1995 the Cancer Treatment Center was built. The Center offers Radiation Therapy and Medical Oncology.

Today St. Peter's Hospital is a sole provider, non-profit, licensed 99 bed facility. In keeping with the hospital mission of providing a continuum of care, services such as home health, hospital and extended services are available.

St. Peter's Hospital is known for comprehensive care and community service. It is dedicated to the values of compassion and caring for all members of the community.
