History
In 1862, the organization's roots was established with the formation of the Washoe Clinic. The clinic was founded to treat patients affected by a smallpox outbreak in Washoe Valley, Nevada. The Washoe County Hospital opened in 1864, after Nevada became a state. The medical center and the healthcare organization were transferred to Washoe Health Systems, a private non-profit organization, in 1984. In 2006, Washoe Health System changed its name to Renown Health.
The Renown Regional Medical Center opened a new pediatric intensive care unit and pediatric floor in February 2012. Renown raised $5.2 million for the 10 month construction project. The remodeling of the floor was Renown's largest philanthropic project.
