History
Crouse Hospital has been caring for generations of families for more than a century. The hospital began as in 1887 as Syracuse Women's Hospital and Training School for Nurses. At the time, it was the only hospital in the area that would admit women and children. In 1902, its name was changed to Syracuse Hospital for Women and Children and by 1908 the hospital began to admit men. In 1918, the name was changed to Syracuse Memorial Hospital to reflect its broader range of services. In 1929, the hospital moved to its present location on Irving Avenue. Crouse Irving Hospital, destined to merge with Syracuse Memorial, was founded by a group of physicians and investors in 1912. For many years Syracuse Memorial and Crouse Irving operated separately while being located across the street from each other. The two hospitals merged in 1968 into Crouse Irving Memorial. In 1996, the name was shortened to Crouse Hospital.
