History

"The Canton-Potsdam Hospital Foundation was established in 1985"[4] to help enlarge the existing hospital. Exapnsion included a $35 million building, erected in 2017, and a $6 million structure in 2018.[5] Part of Canton-Potsdam's growth came from affiliations with other hospitals.[6][7]

St. Lawrence Health System

In 2013 Canton-Potsdam began a state-approved contractual arrangement to manage E.J. Noble Hospital, another New York hospital.[8] The combination, which also brought recognition from union picketers,[9] was named St. Lawrence Health System.[10] This "new two-hospital system" subsequently expanded by adding Massena Memorial Hospital in 2019.[11][12][13]
