Caring for the residents of our desert communities
The hospitals of the Desert Care Network began serving our desert communities in 1948. Since then, Desert Care Network has continued to expand to meet the healthcare needs of the area’s growing population.
From a Level II Emergency Trauma Center – the only one in the region – to the Comprehensive Cancer Center and Institute of Clinical Orthopedics and Neurosciences, Desert Care Network’s medical facilities have provided both compassionate care for patients and superior support for their families.
Anchored by three hospitals — Hi-Desert Medical Center, Desert Regional Medical Center, and JFK Memorial Hospital — the Desert Care Network includes outpatient and specialty services throughout the Coachella Valley and the Hi-Desert.
You can also count on Desert Care Network even if you aren’t a permanent resident of the desert region. Are you spending the winter in Palm Springs or Joshua Tree? If so, we can coordinate and continue your care while you’re here.
Explore the medical services and specialties we offer here at Desert Care Network. You’ll find ways to research symptoms you might have, information on the tests and screenings we offer and descriptions of the treatments that can help get you back on your feet and back to the life you love. If you need additional information, call (833) 310-2440 and let us help you.
