An acute care hospital with 422 licensed beds, Rose cares for more than 160,000 patients annually with a team of 1,300 dedicated employees, 100 volunteers and more than 1,200 physicians.[3]

Rose Medical Center was founded in 1945 by a group of Denver Jewish community leaders who wanted to create a hospital that was free of discrimination and open to doctors and patients of all creeds, races and origins. Following a national fundraising campaign, the new hospital was named in honor of Denver hometown hero Major General Maurice Rose, one of the highest-ranking members of the military to die in the field of combat.  The cornerstone of the main building of the hospital was laid by General Dwight D. Eisenhower on August 31, 1948 and General Rose Memorial Hospital opened for patients in March 1949. Rose was the first hospital to credential the first Jewish physicians and first African American physician in the state of Colorado.
