On July 9, 2012, St. Mary's opened a 24-hour-a-day, 7 day a week 12-bed Emergency Room in Ironton, Ohio. It contains acute and trauma rooms, imaging and lab services, and specialty doctors will rotate between the Ironton Campus and Huntington Campus.[3][4]
In 2014, St. Mary's signed a definitive merger agreement with Cabell Huntington Hospital, forming Mountain Health Network (now known as Marshall Health Network).
