History:
Providence Marianwood (then called "Marianwood Extended Care Services") opened on March 14, 1986. The opening represented the culmination of a decade of planning by the Sisters of St. Joseph of Peace and PeaceHealth for a long term care facility on the Eastside. On February 1, 1996, ownership of Marianwood was transferred from PeaceHealth to the Providence Health System.
