Sioux City, Iowa

Sioux City was originally settled by French and Spanish fur traders in the 1700s. Lewis and Clarke were the first US citizens to record their travels through this area in 1804 and the city became officially known as Sioux City in the mid 1800s. These days the city continues to shrink as jobs keep moving out of the city. The largest employers include the school system, Tyson Foods, and the hospital MercyOne.

MercyOne was founded in 1890 by Mother Mary Agatha Murphy and continues to provide high quality care and in fact is recognized as one of the best hospitals for heart surgery in the US. Unity Point is located on Stone Park and was opened in 1884. Unity Point has 156 beds and sees over 30,000 emergency room visits every year.
