The Eden Township Healthcare District builds partnerships with organizations to ensure access to health services in our community.

The Eden Township Healthcare District was created to build and operate Eden Hospital in Castro Valley.  In 1997, residents of the District voted to approve the hospital’s affiliation with Sutter Health, creating a unique partnership between the two organizations. In 1998, Eden Medical Center became a private, not-for-profit hospital, and the District stepped into a governance role, filling 5 of the 11 seats on the Board of Directors.

That year marked a fundamental change for the District. The members of the Board embraced two areas of responsibility: shared governance in Eden Medical center, and continuing the business of the District to meet the health needs in the community.

In 2004, the District purchased San Leandro Hospital and leased the hospital to Eden Medical Center to operate, under a consolidated license, as an extension of the Castro Valley campus and therefore as an affiliate of Sutter Health.

The District's partnership with Sutter Health continues today. In 2007, the two organizations reached an agreement to pave the way for a new hospital in Castro Valley, to replace the original Eden Hospital and meet the state's stringent earthquake standards.
