Coalinga Regional Medical Center

Coalinga Regional Medical Center, also called Coalinga Regional Medical Center LLC, sits at 1191 Phelps Ave in Coalinga, CA, and has served the community since 1983, though right now they're not accepting new patients, but they'll let folks know the next available opening if you call. Their hospital has 136 staffed beds and offers care in both English and specialized areas like diagnostic imaging and clinical laboratory services, and you'll find a full emergency department with 24/7 medical care, quick diagnostic testing including Covid-19, and a wide range of medical services that covers medicine, pulmonology, surgery, physical and respiratory therapy, pharmacy, rehabilitation, and even a skilled nursing facility named Ralph Neate Extended Care. They keep swing beds for non-acute care and have government hospital district ownership, with inpatient services reporting an average stay of about 3.5 days and charges averaging a bit over $22,900 per Medicare case, and their beds cover routine and acute medical care and their doctors work on both diagnostic and psychiatric needs when necessary. You'll see a radiology department with 24-hour technicians, outpatient services, surgical suites, food and nutrition, and dedicated support in things like social services and podiatry right there on-site, while the attached diagnostic imaging center and respiratory care staff make sure a variety of important tests and therapies can get done under one roof. They offer ambulance and Medi-Flight transportation for emergencies, and use clinical staff to help each patient based on what's needed, plus there's an activities program for those in the skilled nursing area. Their records show over 5,400 total patient days and 362 discharges, and their status as a Critical Access Hospital helps those in rural areas. They focus on price transparency, keep accreditation that can be checked with national boards, and run under a physician-owned facility model that's worked to support people in Coalinga for over thirty years, and if someone's looking for general hospital and skilled nursing services in a small-town hospital setting, this facility's worth knowing about, even if exact amenities and care types aren't always listed up front.
