Mercy Hospital, Hospital building in Nampa, United States.
Mercy Hospital was a two-story building in Nampa with brick walls and large windows that held clinical facilities for community patients. The structure was designed with functional spaces to support various medical departments and care services.
The Sisters of Mercy founded the facility in October 1919 after a fundraising campaign started in 1917 and the Catholic Church provided land. The building went through three major expansions between 1936 and 1959 that increased its capacity to 100 beds.
The Sisters of Mercy managed the hospital operations until 1967, maintaining medical practices aligned with Catholic healthcare principles for the residents of Nampa.
The building no longer exists as it was demolished in 2016. Visitors interested in learning about its history can consult local archives and historical records that document its role as a medical facility.
After its years as a hospital, the building was converted into Valley Plaza Retirement Center and served as a residence for older residents until 2004. This transformation shows how the community adapted the structure for a different purpose before it was eventually demolished.
