History

The United Hospital was first established in 1877 as St. Luke's Hospital. St. Luke's merged with Charles T. Miller Hospital in 1972 to form United Hospital.[2]

Peter J. King Emergency Care Center

United Hospital opened a new emergency department, in collaboration with Children's Hospitals and Clinics of Minnesota, in April 2011. The new emergency department includes: 27 private examination rooms, secure psychiatric rooms, a decontamination area for instances of biologic, chemical or radiation exposure, and private patient care and family areas.[3] The center is named after Peter J. King, founder of King Capital and Peter J. King Family Foundation.[4]

gollark: There's probably a marketing team or something trying to deliberately design the ridiculous "Wumpus is lonely" and whatnot messages to appeal more to... someone?
gollark: Do any of these people actually like to see stuff like "Here's a Wumpus for now" in the UI?
gollark: And some languages have a grammatical formal/informal distinction - and they use the formal grammar, but with the really informal wording - which makes it even weirder.
gollark: Apparently they try and use the same sort of thing in other languages...
gollark: On a related note, it annoys me a lot that Discord seem to want to appeal to "gamers"; I don't even know *which* gamers, honestly; with the weird phrasing they use in the UI.
