IN ORDER TO MEET PATIENT CARE REQUIREMENTS, AS WELL AS THE DEMANDS OF A RAPIDLY GROWING POPULATION IN SOUTHEAST TULSA, SAINT FRANCIS HOSPITAL, INC. WAS EXPANDED IN 1969 TO 735 ADULT AND PEDIATRIC BEDS AND BASSINETS. A MAJOR MILESTONE OCCURRED ON DECEMBER 3, 1975 - THE 15TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE HOSPITAL - WHEN THE NATALIE WARREN BRYANT CANCER CENTER OPENED ITS DOORS.
