Photo showing "Serenity surrounds Hazelton's hospital". Five miles away from the picturesque and majestic-looking Rocher DeBoule Mountain sits serenely the proud hospital of Hazelton - the Wrinch Memorial Hospital - named after the late Dr. Horace Wrinch, the town's most popular doctor. The hospital, built in 1930, has become a self-contained community, possessing its own water and drainage systems, maintenance shop, laundry and gardens. A number of homes for doctors and staff members are located in spacious grounds adjacent to the hospital building. A beautiful golf course and one of the few if not the only birch groves, adorns the landscape.
