History:
Good Samaritan was established in January 1952 when the Lutheran Home and Welfare Society assumed management of Puyallup General Hosptial. The Lutheran Welfare Society changed the name to Good Samaritan, a name inspired by the parable about the Good Samaritan that is recorded in the Gospel of St. Luke. thus began the hospital's tradition of caring with the compassion and spirit of Christ's love that distinguishes the organization to this day.
