SCVH is comprised of four hospitals: Santa Clara Valley Medical Center (SCVMC - a 731-bed central hospital), O’Connor Hospital (OCH - 358 licensed beds), and Saint Louise Regional Hospital (SLRH – 93 licensed beds) and Regional Medical Center (RMC - 258 licensed beds).  In addition, SCVH includes a network of primary care clinics comprised of eleven health centers throughout the County, several urgent care clinics, dental services, primary care behavioral health services, and a broad range of specialty services in our Valley Specialty Center. 

At SCVH, we have recently established a Cardiac Care Service Line that integrates all cardiac services across our hospitals and clinics to provide comprehensive care including advanced cardiothoracic surgery that includes use of ECMO, structural heart procedures, multiple STEMI receiving centers, electrophysiologic studies and interventions, outpatient cardiac rehabilitation and an outpatient heart failure program.

Regional Medical Center, the newest addition to the Health Care system, is a level 2 trauma center, STEMI receiving center and Thrombectomy capable Stroke Center.  In addition to the busy inpatient services there is an outpatient clinic located on the campus to facilitate an efficient elective outpatient practice.

Providers in our health system also have the opportunity to use our integrated electronic health record (Epic), which brings together systemwide patient information.  The Health Information Management Systems Society (HIMSS) recognized SCVMC for achieving its highest level of success (Stage 7), based on our continuous innovation and optimization of our inpatient and outpatient EHR.
