About Mercy Medical Center

Location:

1320 Mercy Drive NW, Canton, OH 44708, US

Mission Statement

As a Catholic health care organization, our mission at Mercy Medical Center is to continue Christ's healing ministry by providing quality, compassionate, accessible and affordable care for the whole person.

Description

The first and only faith-based hospital in Stark County.

The Sisters of Charity of St. Augustine established our hospital as the first and only Catholic hospital in Stark County, a distinction we still hold. When the Sisters came to Canton in 1908, they joined with physicians to convert President McKinley's former home into a hospital.

Recognized as one of America's 100 Top Hospitals for cardiovascular services/interventional cardiology, Mercy Medical Center has been a leader in bringing new and innovative heart treatments to our area. A life-saving protocol, which provides angioplasty in the Emergency Department was pioneered here in Mercy's Emergency Chest Pain Center (ECPC).
