History
The Anna Turnbull Memorial Hospital was located in Wakaw, Saskatchewan. In 1905 Rev. George Arthur established The Geneva Mission at Wakaw. Dr. Arthur and his wife initially cared for the sick in their home. In 1906 a hospital was built by the Woman's Home Missionary Society of The Presbyterian Church in Canada. After church union in 1925 it was operated by The Woman's Missionary Society (WMS) of The United Church of Canada. In 1912 a new hospital was built, which enlarged over time with a new operating room built in 1928. The hospital was operated by the WMS until 1942. In 1943 the doctors residence was sold to Dr. R. G. Scott who had been responsible for the hospital's management and financing, and in 1946 other buildings were sold.
