The Saint-Francis Hospital (Dutch/Flemish: Sint-Franciscusziekenhuis) is a hospital located in the municipality of Heusden-Zolder in the province of Limburg (Belgium), Flanders, Belgium. The Saint-Francis Hospital was founded by the congregation of the Grauwzusters from Zoutleeuw on 20 October 1925 when the head of the Franciscan order in Heusden-Zolder asked for a hospital for the local miners. This is how the hospital got its name. The construction of the hospital started in 1927 and in that same year, the hospital was able to take care of 30 people. An operating room, a pharmacy and a washhouse were added in 1928. In 1932, a room for radiodiagnosis was added. During World War II, in 1941, the hospital was extended with another hall that could fit 30 patients, as well as a delivery room. A maternity department was added in 1952 and in 1957, an internal medicine department was added. Finally, the hospital was extended with a pediatrics department. After these works, however, renovations and more specialised medical departments were needed in the hospital. More information...
