Our Facility
State-of-the-art hospital
Heart of the Rockies Regional Medical Center has been at 1000 Rush Drive in Salida, Colorado, since April 1, 2008. The facility's design enables us to provide state-of-the-art care using advanced medical technology.
The hospital is the healthcare center for the entire region, serving the many tourists who visit our valley and nearly 20,000 residents throughout the Salida Hospital District (Chaffee County and parts of Fremont and Saguache counties).
