Mercy Hospital – Unity Campus

Mercy and Unity hospitals, parts of Allina Health, have provided exceptional care to North Metro communities for more than 50 years. In 2017, Mercy and Unity hospitals began operating as a single system of hospital care on two campuses in Coon Rapids and Fridley. This “One Hospital, Two Campuses” plan makes a significant investment to strengthen the services Mercy and Unity provide to patients in the North Metro. The “One Hospital, Two Campuses” strategy will integrate specialty services across two campuses over several years. The plan lays the foundation to support improved health of our communities for the next 20 years and beyond. In January 2017, we changed the names of Mercy and Unity hospitals to share the single name: Mercy Hospital.
