History
Established in 1968 as a 27-bed district hospital, Redbud Community Hospital added an Intensive Care Unit in 1983. It was purchased by Adventist Health in 1997 for $6.5 million, with the obligation to maintain and operate it as an acute care hospital including basic emergency and perinatal services. In 2003, the Redbud Family Medical Clinic broke ground. In 2005, the hospital became a 25-bed critical access hospital enabling better funding for operations and capital spending. In 2007, the Hidden Valley Lake Medical Offices opened. In addition, the infrastructure work was begun to prepare for expansion of the emergency department. Construction is slated to begin in summer of 2008. Redbud Community Hospital continues to expand and improve operations on an ongoing basis.
