Peninsula Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, formerly known as Rockaway Beach Hospital and Peninsula General Hospital, was a community hospital in the Far Rockaway neighborhood of Queens, New York. PHC, founded in 1908, which opened on April 30, 1911, [1] was an affiliate of the MediSys Health Network at the time of its 2012 closure.
The hospital expanded in 1960. [2] In 1964, then still known as "Peninsula General Hospital in Edgemere, Queens," they built a supplementary 2-story structure primarily for nurses quarters. [3] In the 1970s Peninsula attempted to take over another hospital. [4]
PHC ran a 173-bed acute care community teaching hospital campus, and a 200-bed long-term care and rehabilitation center, serving the communities of the Rockaways, the Five Towns of Nassau County and parts of Queens and Brooklyn.
Peninsula, which in 2006 a state agency wanted St. Johns to absorb, [5] closed in 2012.
Since 2014 the facility has been known as Peninsula Nursing and Rehabilitation Center operated by Cassena Care. [6] [7]
