The history of Morton Comprehensive Health Services, Inc. dates back to 1921, when the Red Cross opened Maurice Willows Hospital in North Tulsa. In 1941, the City of Tulsa replaced Willows with a new municipal hospital, Moton Memorial Hospital, named in honor of Robert Russa Moton who was an educator and former president of Tuskegee Institute.
Closed in 1967, the facility was reopened in 1968 as Moton Health Center, operating as an ambulatory care center with funds provided by a grant from the Office of Economic Opportunity, administered by Tulsa City-County Health Department. In 1972, H.E.W., now the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), assumed grant support for the organization. In 1983 the center’s name was changed to Morton in honor of W.A. Morton, M.D., a prominent African American physician with a distinguished record of service at Moton. At the same time, the health center was administratively reorganized and incorporated as Morton Comprehensive Health Services, Inc., a nonprofit corporation with 501(C) (3) IRS status and governed by a multicultural board of directors comprised of 17 community representatives. Morton is designated as a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC).
In October 2006 Morton moved into its new 60,000 square foot facility funded by Vision2025 and began the application process for Joint Commission accreditation. In June of 2008 Morton became one of only two FQHC facilities in the State of Oklahoma to achieve Joint Commission accreditation status. In addition to the facility on Lansing, Morton opened three satellite offices in the last several years, the East Tulsa Family Health Center at 11520 E. 21 Street, the Mid-Town Family Health Center at 102 N. Denver and the Nowata Family Health Center at 207 S. Locust St in Nowata.
