Then and Now

Tahoe Forest Hospital District was founded in 1949 by the residents it serves and has become a symbol of the community's historic dedication to excellence in healthcare. The District is governed by a five-member Board of Directors elected by the voters of the Tahoe Forest Hospital District.

Tahoe Forest Hospital is a 25-bed, not-for-profit healthcare facility serving a wide range of patients. The hospital is fully accredited by the Healthcare Accreditation Facilities Program and licensed by the State of California Department of Health Services.

Originally a single-story, 10,000 square-foot structure with 11 beds, Tahoe Forest Hospital has expanded to include 25 acute care beds and 37 long-term care beds. With the Western Addition the facility grew to roughly 115,000 square feet.

Tahoe Forest Hospital is the only healthcare facility in more than a 50-mile radius serving a full-time population of approximately 40,000 residents with influxes of up to an additional 30,000 tourists during peak periods.
