Description
Rouge Valley Centenary has served the residents of Scarborough since 1967 It was built with community support dating to at least 1964 when a small group of Scarborough residents started a campaign for a second hospital in their community The Township of Scarborough purchased property formerly owned by the Boy Scouts of Canada and donated another 25 acres for construction of the Scarborough Centenary Hospital
In addition to the original 15floor tower two additional wings have been added including the Margaret Birch Wing in 1986 and The Court medical suit in 1991

Both RVHS hospitals amalgamated in 1998 now provide a wide range of quality services to the Rouge Valley area
