Sacred Heart Medical Center in Eugene began as Pacific Christian Hospital, which was founded by Eugene Bible University, now Bushnell University and dedicated on March 16, 1924. The building was six stories tall and cost about $225,000.
The hospital is located in Springfield, in the U.S. state of Oregon. Established in 2008, it is the only remaining Sacred Heart facility in the Eugene-Springfield area owned by PeaceHealth. The RiverBend facility is home to a 24-hour Level II trauma center including full medical/surgical care.
