Geisinger St. Luke’s first opened its doors to the public in November of 2019. It is the first new acute-care, non-replacement hospital Schuylkill County has seen in 90 years. The hospital is the first joint venture of its kind in Pennsylvania. Geisinger St. Luke’s features state-of-the-art operating and procedure rooms, a helipad, a large and efficient emergency department and the most modern medical technologies from GE Healthcare. Geisinger St. Luke’s achieved Adult Level 4 Trauma Center accreditation status on November 1, 2021. This is a large benefit for the community in a rural setting.
