History
Founded in 1903, Milton Hospital began operations as a convalescent home. 1903 saw the Cunningham Foundation offer a portion of the Edward Cunningham Estate for future development and expansion of the services offered at that time. Milton Hospital was officially incorporated in 1903 with just nine beds.
In 1944, the current site of Milton Hospital was finalized with the purchase of land from the Pierce Estate. The newly constructed hospital building finally opened its doors in 1950. In 1987, a new patient service wing and main entrance were added. Renovations provided space for several departments, namely; emergency department, ambulatory care unit, diagnostic services department, intensive care/coronary care unit, operating suites and a conference area.
