TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — The Santa Cruz Valley Regional Hospital announced it has officially closed.
As of 12 p.m. on Thursday, June 30, the hospital has closed its doors.
This has raised concerns for some people.
For inquiries about medical records, patients are advised to visit scvrhaz.com or call 520-393-4788.
The hospital launched in 2015 as Green Valley Hospital to serve residents of Green Valley and Sahuarita who were faced with a 30-minute drive for emergency services.
The hospital changed its name to Santa Cruz Valley Regional Hospital in 2018, 'to reflect new management, new owners and a more expansive vision of a modern community hospital and medical campus able to serve Green Valley, Sahuarita, Nogales, Rio Rico, Tubac, Amado, Patagonia, and Sonoita,' according to the hospital's website, which is no longer functional.
