Peninsula Hospital Center closes after a century in the Rockaways
Peninsula Hospital Center, earlier known as Rockaway Beach Hospital, was founded in 1908, opened in 1911 and shut down in 2012 while affiliated with the MediSys Health Network. It had run a 173-bed acute care teaching hospital and a 200-bed long-term care and rehab center, serving the Rockaways, Nassau County's Five Towns and sections of Queens and Brooklyn. A state agency had proposed in 2006 that St. John's absorb it.
“PHC, founded in 1908, which opened on April 30, 1911, was an affiliate of the MediSys Health Network at the time of its 2012 closure.”
