History

The Central Campus of Confluence Health Hospital has its origins in the early 1900s with the establishment of Central Washington Deaconess Hospital and St. Anthony’s Hospital. These two organizations merged in 1974 to form Central Washington Health Services Association. The St. Anthony’s facility was renamed Rosewood Hospital, and operations were consolidated at the remodeled and expanded Rosewood Hospital site, now known as Central Washington Hospital.

In 1940, Dr. L.M. Mares, Dr. A.G. Haug, and Dr. L.S. Smith founded the Wenatchee Valley Clinic, emphasizing the importance of providing patients with easy access to various specialists under one roof.

In July 2013 the two organizations affiliated and became Confluence Health. We serve 4-counties in North Central Washington by providing comprehensive inpatient and outpatient healthcare services. We are committed and honored to serve our patients and our many communities.

At Confluence Health, our mission is local care by and for our community.
