St. Paul's Hospital

St. Pauls Hospital is located on 20th Street and Avenue P in Saskatoon. St. Pauls Hospital is an acute care teaching facility offering a comprehensive range of services to residents of Saskatoon and Northern Saskatchewan. Inspired by the example of St. Marguerite dYouville, we continue the tradition of Catholic health care by sharing in a call to reveal the goodness and love of the Creator God for all people. Together with the Grey Nuns, we work to build a world where hope and compassion prevail. The original St. Pauls Hospital (1907) was first located in a physicians (Dr. John H. C. Willoughby) house. The hospital was established due to an outbreak of typhoid, which occurred while the Canadian Pacific Railroad was building a bridge in Saskatoon. The bridge was located downstream from the town garbage dump (where the Bessborough hotel now stands). Contaminated water from the garbage dump eventually led to a breakout of typhoid among the workers. Catholic priests cared for the sick in the Catholic rectory, and in Dr. Willoughbys house. A group of Grey Nuns passing through Saskatoon on their travels, stayed to help. SPH Entrance StatueA hospital was eventually opened in 1913. In 1963, the current B-Wing of St. Pauls Hospital was built and owned by the Grey Nuns. A-Wing was added in 1989. St. Pauls continues to compassionately offer quality health care to residents of Saskatoon and northern Saskatchewan. In 1995, St. Pauls Hospital entered an affiliation agreement with Saskatoon District Health, now the Saskthewan Health Authority. In 1999, the Grey Nuns transferred ownership of the hospital to the Saskatchewan Catholic Health Corporation.
