History
& Future
Redlands
Community Hospital is a non-profit, 172-bed acute care
facility. Although officially founded and incorporated in
1929, RCH history has roots dating back to 1903 when Redlands opened
its first medical facility on Vine Street. Started by a small
group of doctors, it relocated to another building on Nordina Street
in downtown Redlands before moving to the hospital's present site at
350 Terracina Boulevard. It sits proudly on hilltop in
southwest Redlands, overlooking the valley. The original
cornerstone is displayed near the entrance to the hospital today and
serves as a reminder of those early pioneers in healthcare.
Through the years, the community has seen some major structural
changes, including the addition of two large towers: a five-story
round tower in 1965 and a five-story triangular tower in 1985.
Many buildings have been removed, but a few still remain behind the
"Hall of History" facade along the front of the
hospital. As a community-type hospital, Redlands Community
Hospital is widely recognized for its personal, attentive care,
along with comprehensive, high quality services. Our goal is
to maintain that level of quality care, yet meet the needs of a
population changing in its need for health care services.
