Our History

More than fifty years ago, a commitment was made by the local community and concerned medical professionals to keep a medical facility open in the small town of Arcata, California. Because of the dedication of public-minded citizens of the North Coast, an Arcata-based hospital was able to continue serving the local community. The following relates this history of Mad River Community Hospital.
