Trinity Mother Frances Hospitals and Clinics is a non-profit regional health care provider headquartered in Tyler, Texas that operates six hospitals and 36 health clinics in north-central and northeast Texas. ==History== In the early 1930s, the Sisters of The Holy Family of Nazareth recognized the need for a hospital in Tyler, Texas. Working with far-sighted physicians and city leaders, the Sisters transformed their vision for a modern medical facility into reality. The hospital was named in honor of Frances Siedliska, the founder of the Sisters of the Holy Family of Nazareth.〔("Trinity Mother Frances - History" )〕 The hospital opened on March 18, 1937—one day ahead of schedule to care for victims of the New London School explosion.〔("Handbook of Texas Online" )〕 Several years later, in 1948, the Sisters of the Holy Family of Nazareth completed the purchase of the hospital from the City of Tyler and in October 1965, Mother Frances Week was celebrated in Tyler, dedicating a new wing. This $4.5 million wing added 110 new patient beds and a new cafeteria to the hospital.〔("Trinity Mother Frances - History Wall" )〕 In 1934, The Trinity Clinic began as The Bryant Clinic. It was founded by two general practitioners, Dr. William Howard Bryant and Dr. Sidney W. Bradford. The Bryant Clinic received the first call for help in Tyler to treat the victims of the New London tragedy. In 1948, The Bryant Clinic changed its name to The Medical & Surgical Clinic and later, with the addition of two other Tyler-area medical practices, became Trinity Clinic.〔 Today, Trinity Clinic is the area's biggest multi-specialty medical group, with over 300 providers representing 38 specialties in 36 clinic locations serving east Texas. In 1995, Mother Frances Hospital and Trinity Clinic merged, creating Trinity Mother Frances Health System, one of the country's first integrated health care systems.〔 In 2007, Trinity Mother Frances Health System changed its name to Trinity Mother Frances Hospitals and Clinics. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Trinity Mother Frances Hospitals and Clinics」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
