History

Deaconess Hospital was established 124 years ago in 1896 as one of the first hospitals in Spokane. One of its early specialties was orthopedic surgery.[4] It is located immediately south of Interstate 90 at Fourth Avenue, on the west side of Lewis and Clark High School.

In 2011, the name of the hospital was changed from Deaconess Medical Center to Deaconess Hospital.[5]
