Palmdale Regional Medical Center is a private hospital located in Palmdale, California.
This hospital was the most expensive hospital project Universal Health Services has ever undertaken at US$200 million. Adjacent to the hospital itself is a 60,000-square-foot (5,600 m2) medical office tower, called the Palmdale Medical Plaza. The hospital complex will also feature apartment housing for those who need assisted living. The hospital complex is 34.17 acres (13.83 ha).
This acute care facility is the only hospital in Palmdale, the largest city in California without a hospital prior to opening in December 2010. The hospital is 320,000 square feet (30,000 m2), and provides 775 jobs to the area. It opened with 127 beds, with another 44 beds approved to be added 8 months after opening. The hospital will be able to expand to 239 beds at maximum development.[1]
This new facility features a 35-bed emergency department, the largest emergency room in the Antelope Valley area, and a heliport (FAA LID: 50CN).
