History

The original St. Mary Hospital was opened in Philadelphia in 1860 after inspiration from the Sisters of St. Francis. The hospital moved to Bucks County in 1973 opening a new hospital on land previously used as a horse farm.

In 1996, St. Mary Hospital was renamed to St. Mary Medical Center and was designated as "an Eastern Region member of Catholic Health Initiatives".

In 2012, St. Mary Medical Center expanded its campus by adding a helicopter landing pad for patient transport.

St. Mary discouraged nurses from joining unions. In August 2019, nurses "voted to unionize with PASNAP".[2][3]
