Health
Care
The
hospital, first known as Sapulpa City Hospital, was built
in 1921. In 1957, the H.U. and Eva Maud Bartlett Foundation
purchased the hospital and implemented rapid expansion to
meet the community's growing needs. The facility was
renamed St. John Sapulpa in 2000.
The
hospital has since undergone a three-year expansion and
renovation project. A new kidney dialysis unit was built
just south of the hospital. Designated as a critical access
hospital by the state, St. John Sapulpa gives Creek County
residents access to the region's most advanced medical specialists and technology through its affiliation with the St. John
Health System. The hospital is licensed for 25 beds and
offers 24-hour care in its emergency center. Sapulpa is
also home to some of the states finest dentists, physicians,
optometrists, chiropractors and physical
therapists. Many
have provided services to this community for years,
continuing their education to advance to the latest in technology
and training in their field. Other providers offer physical
therapy, mental health testing, counseling, day treatment,
individual, group and family therapy, drug and alcohol rehabilitation.
There are several senior housing facilities and nursing
homes in the area, offering independent and assisted living. A newly constructed senior retirement community, Inverness Village, offers a quality private long-term healthcare service.
