when do they name the hospital grey sloan memorial
Grey's Anatomy Grey's Anatomy follows the lives of surgical interns and residents at the fictional Grey-Sloan Memorial Hospital (formerly Seattle Grace Hospital, Season 1–6, Seattle Grace Mercy West Hospital, Season 6–9, and then Grey-Sloan Memorial Hospital, Season 9–present), as they gradually develop as seasoned doctors, with the help of their competent attending mentors and chief of surgery. Each installment, typically, begins with a voice-over narrative from Meredith Grey or a season regular, foreshadowing the theme of the episode.[79][80] Each season tends to represent the physicians' academic year, with each completed year qualifying the residents at a level higher in the surgical field.[81] The season will always end with a finale, typically related to a dramatic event such as a death or character departure.[82] Most installments revolve around the doctors' everyday lives as surgeons, but the show also emphasizes their personal, rather than professional, lives.[79] The series sets aside medical ethic concerns to focus on character development and relationships. Although the physicians treat the illnesses of their patients, often through complex surgeries, they display competitive spirit and seek praise.[83]
