Good Sam Hospital’s growth reflected decades of expansion and change
Good Samaritan Hospital saw many renovations and additions during its time of service to the community. A campaign for such in the 1950s raised more than $3 million. Construction on a seven-story addition began in 1954 and was completed in 1956. An additionally seven-story building was built on Myrtle Ave in 1966. In 1974 the early 1900s buildings were razed and replaced with a new three-story service building. The first Medical Art Building opened in 1977 and the second in 1995. Good Sam merged with Bethesda Hospital to form Genesis HealthCare System in 2015. The demolition of Good Sam began on July 11, 2016. The main hospital structures were taken down section by section over several months, with the site clearing and restoration largely finishing by the end of 2016.

From sanitarium to community pillar. The Legacy of Good Samaritan
Good Samaritan Hospital served the community for more than a century. Its story began in 1895 at the Margaret Blue Sanitarium, which would eventually become the Good Samaritan Hospital. In 1900, Dr. Thomas Sutton, who was the board of trustees at the sanitarium, asked the Franciscan Sisters of Christian Charity from Manitowoc, Wisconsin, for nursing assistance. Five nuns came to Zanesville to be nurses at the hospital. Their responsibilities included cleaning, bathing, feeding and providing for patients. The hospital was officially dedicated on June 27, 1902 and was established on Laurel Avenue in the former E.J. Brush home. In its honor of the dedication and the legacy the hospital left in this community, the TR is sharing photos of the facility from our archives. This is the first of a two-part look back.
