On Nov. 2, 1925, the 32-bed Sarasota Hospital opened its doors. Ninety-five years later, Sarasota Memorial Healthcare System is a thriving regional medical center, with a network of outpatient and urgent care centers, a physician practice group, a Skilled Nursing and Rehab Center, a behavioral health hospital and plans under way to open a new hospital in Venice. As a community hospital, our greatest strength comes from the community we serve and our greatest pride comes from that service. Here’s a look back at 95 years of hospital history.
