Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital is a 197 bed[1] community hospital in Binghamton, New York, United States sponsored by the Daughters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul. The Daughters of Chrity will be leaving the hospital in 2017.[2]

In 1983, the hospital was selected by the US Federal Government to take part in a national cancer research project.[3] In 2006, a flood cost the hospital several million dollars in damages.[4]

In 2016, the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services released the first round of the Overall Hospital Quality Star Rating. Our Lady of Lourdes received the lowest ranking, one star.[5] That same year, Loudes Hospital became a certified member of the MD Anderson Cancer Network.[6]
