THE FOOTPRINTS

In the fall of 2002, St. Francis Medical Center, in the Lawrenceville section of Pittsburgh, was sold to the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center Health System. A new Children's Hospital will take the place of the 137 year-old St. Francis facility, founded and owned by The Sisters of St. Francis of Millvale.

Due to the sale of the St. Francis Medical Center, the School of Nursing was closed immediately - and forever. After more than 100 years of graduating excellent nurses, among the best in the country, there will be no more. Without a chance for many to say good-bye, the school and hospital were suddenly GONE.

And since there is no St. Francis Hospital or School of Nursing, there is no "Alma Mater" for graduates.

A search of the Internet yields only broken links to the former St. Francis hospital and school.... almost like they disappeared, without even leaving a footprint...

But there are footprints!

Graduates of the School of Nursing at St. Francis are scattered far and wide and THEY are the legacy... they are all that is left. For as long as they live, they will be the FOOTPRINTS of Pittsburgh's St. Francis Hospital School of Nursing.

Looking forward to meeting you in Cyberspace!
