In 1862, the organization's roots was established with the formation of the Washoe Clinic.[3] The clinic was founded to treat patients affected by a smallpox outbreak in Washoe Valley, Nevada.[3] The Washoe County Hospital opened in 1864, after Nevada became a state.[3] The medical center and the healthcare organization were transferred to Washoe Health Systems, a private non-profit organization, in 1984.[3] In 2006, Washoe Health System changed its name to Renown Health.[3]
The Renown Regional Medical Center opened a new pediatric intensive care unit and pediatric floor in February 2012.[4][5] Renown raised $5.2 million for the 10 month construction project.[5] The remodeling of the floor was Renown's largest philanthropic project.[5]
