History

A group of women with $400 and a house on Ottawa Street volunteered their time to care for the sick and injured in 1896, founding Lansing’s first health service. From those humble beginnings grew Sparrow Health System, mid-Michigan’s leader in quality, compassionate, cost-effective health care that is nationally recognized for excellence.
