Its facilities were moved to Carnegie Avenue in 1908, and to its present site on Shaker Boulevard in 1927. After a brief merger with MetroHealth Medical Center in the early 1990s, it was sold to Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation and its Ohio partner, the Sisters of Charity of Saint Augustine in 1997. The non-profit proceeds of the sale were used to create the Saint Luke's Foundation. The collection consists of agendas, annual reports, articles of incorporation, brochures, budgets, bylaws, calendars, certificates, contracts, correspondence, financial statements, handbooks, indexes, inventories, invitations, ledgers, lists, magazine and newspaper clippings, notes, pamphlets, publications, reports, resolutions, rosters, schedules, scrapbooks, scripts, signage, speech texts, surveys, proceedings, and tax records. | | | | Call #: | MS 4875 | | | | Extent: | 21.61 linear feet (24 containers and 1 oversize folder) | | | | Subjects: | Cleveland General Hospital. | Saint Luke's Hospital Association (Cleveland Ohio). | Saint Luke's Hospital (Cleveland, Ohio) School of Nursing. | MetroHealth Medical Center. | MetroHealth Saint Luke's Medical Center. | Saint Luke's Medical Center. | Saint Luke's Foundation. | Hospitals -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Saint Luke's Hospital (Cleveland, Ohio) -- History. | Nurses -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Hospitals -- Maternity services -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Charities -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Charitable uses, trusts, and foundations -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Philanthropists -- Ohio -- Cleveland.
