A History of the Laurel Health Centers
The Laurel Health Centers can trace their roots back to the Blossburg State General Hospital, which began serving patients in 1891. When the Blossburg hospital closed its doors in 1972, residents were determined to preserve local access to care and founded North Penn Comprehensive Health Services (NPCHS). North Penn opened its first family health center in 1973 on the former hospital site and expanded to include behavioral health and substance abuse treatment services the following year.
Over the next two decades, North Penn opened primary care clinics in Mansfield, Wellsboro, Westfield, Elkland, and Lawrenceville. In 1988, North Penn entered into partnership with Soldiers + Sailors Memorial Hospital to form Laurel Health System, rebranding its clinics to the Laurel Health Centers and Laurel Behavioral Health.
In 2012, the other parts of Laurel Health System merged with a Williamsport-based health system. The Laurel Health Centers separated and returned to being a fully independent organization, retaining our Laurel Health name.
Let Us Be a Part of Your Health Journey
