History

Gresham General Hospital opened in July 1959 in downtown Gresham at a former nursing home that opened in 1934. [1] Gresham General was a private, for-profit facility owned by Ben F. Doerksen and his wife built as a 52-bed facility for a cost of $500,000. [2] Metropolitan Hospitals, parent company for Emanuel Hospital, purchased the hospital in 1971 and renamed it as Gresham Community Hospital, [1] [3] and by 1973 it had grown to a 113-bed facility. [4] Earlier in 1971 Emanuel and several other hospitals joined to form Metropolitan Hospitals, which in 1989 became Legacy Health through another merger. [3] In November 1984, Gresham's hospital moved to its current location on Southeast Stark Street in 1984, when it was renamed as Mount Hood Medical Center. [5] The new $15.6 million facility was five stories and had 107 beds. [5]

Construction on a second medical office building on the campus started in 1998. [6] [7] In 2001, the hospital added a permanent MRI machine, replacing a mobile unit that had previously been used. [8] The next year the imaging department completed an expansion that doubled the size and also added a CAT scan machine. [9] In 2003, Mount Hood Medical Center started construction on a $3 million expansion of the maternity department. [10] The hospital opened an expanded 29-bed, 20,000-square-foot (1,900 m2) emergency department in 2009. [11]

Operations

Legacy Mount Hood Medical Center has 115 licensed beds, but only operates 91 of them. [12] [13]

The hospital serves the eastern portions of Multnomah County in the Portland area.

Part of Legacy Health, the state of Oregon classifies the hospital as a DRG hospital. [14]

Services at the facility include emergency services, maternity(Shut down in 2023 due to providers not wanting to follow a new model and walked out), surgery, radiology, breast health, cardiac rehabilitation, and orthopedic services. [15]

For 2013, the hospital had a total of 5,848 discharges, with 20,493 patient days, and 41,501 emergency department visits, plus 93,254 outpatient days. [13] Also that year were 1,027 births and 1,526 inpatient surgeries. [12] In 2013 Mount Hood Medical Center had $319,752,501 in gross patient revenues, provided $25,853,578 in charity care, had $110,376,379 total in operating expenses, and an income of $2,030,716.
