About Mission Hospital and Mission Childrens Hospital

History
As the flagship of the Mission Health system our roots date back to 1885 Our hospital was the vision of four tenacious women Anna Woodfin Fanny Patton Rose Chapman and Lily Carmichael who helped revolutionize healthcare in Western North Carolina The group began their health initiative with fundraising and sold flowers on Ashevilles downtown streets Their venture became known as The Little Flower Mission and their vision was simple care for those in need regardless of their ability to pay
Next they opened a hospital on a shoestring budget on October 6 1885 in a rented fiveroom house with donated furniture and materials Mission Hospital would officially care for its first patient a woman in labor on October 17 1885 and it grew under the womens leadership over the next 63 years
The first Mission Hospital patient was carried from her nearby home on a little pallet borne by two men Today critically ill and injured patients from throughout the region may come to our facility by the air ambulance service Mountain Area Medical Airlift also known as MAMA Our pediatric emergency room and childrens hospital treat many injuries and illnesses in kids from across the region
Mission Hospital was formed when St Josephs Hospital and Memorial Mission Medical Center began an organizational partnership in 1996 This partnership was followed by a full merger on October 27 1998 when Memorial Mission Medical Center purchased St Josephs Hospital from the Sisters of Mercy Today we have grown into a modern 815bed facility serving Western North Carolina families
