Welcome to the Fontana Medical Center!The Kaiser Permanente Fontana Medical Center has long been recognized for its

service to residents of the Inland Empire. From its humble beginnings as a pre-paid

health insurance plan for employees at the Kaiser Steel Corporation to the modern

day leader in innovative

integrated healthcare

delivery—the Fontana Medical

Center has always been at

the forefront of providing

affordable and first-rate, quality

healthcare.

It all began in 1943 with

the partnership of industrialist

Henry J. Kaiser and Sidney

Garfield, MD, at the Kaiser

Steel Mill in Fontana. Kaiser

and Dr. Garfield brought their

prepaid health care delivery

system to 3,000 steel mill

workers in this rural community.

The health care delivery system

had been successfully used

in other Kaiser steel industry

projects, such as the Colorado

River Aqueduct in the desert,

and the Grand Coulee Dam in

Washington State.

The Kaiser Foundation Hospital was established at the Kaiser Fontana Steel

Mill site, making it the first hospital of Kaiser Permanente’s Southern California

Region. The 85-bed hospital served the steelworkers and their families, and had

a staff of five physicians and 16 support staff. The health plan was immediately

successful, and in 1945 Dr. Garfield and his physician associates opened the

Kaiser Permanente Health

Plan to the residents of

Fontana and surrounding

communities. In 1953 a

full-fledged medical center

was built to replace the

original facility.

What began as a small

hospital in Fontana has

grown into a teaching

hospital with a licensed

bed capacity of 444, more

than 400 physicians and

more than 5,000 support

staff, who serve more than

500,000 members and

community citizens.

Today, the bustling

medical center campus

prepares for the opening

of a new state-of-the-art

replacement hospital, which

is scheduled to open in

2013. This new facility features a number of medical specialties and expands the

level of care available to residents throughout the Fontana & Ontario service area.

“Of all the things I’ve done, I expect only to be remembered

for my hospitals. They’re the things that are filling the people’s

greatest need—good health.” —Henry Kaiser
