Built as a boarding house in 1893 and converted to a hospital in 1902, the Tintic Hospital served the people of the Tintic mining district until 1933. It was originally operated by Drs. Mott, Townsend, and Stephens, then was purchased by Dr. Steele Bailey Sr. and Dr. Charles Harvielle in 1904. Dr. Steele Bailey Jr., who was then attending medical school, later joined his father and brother-in-law in the practice of medicine in 1904 and continued to operate the hospital until 1933, when he moved to Eureka, Utah. Its service during the influenza epidemic of 1918 and its numerous emergency treatments for miners and their families in the district were long remembered. The original building was destroyed about 1935.
