Facilities

Hoag Family Cancer Institute

Hoag Family Cancer Institute provides care through site-specific programs based on cancer/tumor type. Programs include advanced diagnostics, progressive treatments and support services care – all delivered from a multidisciplinary team of experts.[6]

In the media: The hospital's Axxent FlexiShield Mini study-treatment adjunct to the Axxent Electronic Brachytherapy breast cancer treatment has been recalled. The F.D.A., which had approved the Mini on an expedited basis, is looking into the unexpected deposit of tungsten particles in patients' tissue which the device seems to have caused. The Mini, developed by Xoft and now owned by iCAD Inc., was found to have left study patients—including 27 from Hoag -- "riddled ... with hundreds of tiny particles of the heavy metal tungsten in their breast tissue and chest muscles" after surgery. Long-term implications of the particles have not yet been established, but they trigger false positives in mammograms and concern patients and observers. The Axxent Electronic Brachytherapy has not been recalled.[7]

Hoag Orthopedic Institute

Hoag Orthopedic Institute (HOI) was developed through a unique partnership between Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian and a select group of Orange County-based orthopedic physicians with many years of experience providing care to orthopedic patients. HOI opened in 2010 with the vision of providing southern California communities with superior orthopedic care through excellence in outcomes, clinical innovation, research and advocacy. Today, HOI is more than 300 specialty physicians strong and includes partnerships cultivated to provide comprehensive musculoskeletal health services in its communities. HOI epitomizes a value-driven model with a strong focus on quality while controlling cost. HOIs mantra of "We Get You Back To You" is also a pledge to each patient.

Hoag Orthopedic Institute is consistently ranked among the top hospitals in the United States. In late 2019, HOI received the 2019 Press Ganey Guardian of Excellence Award, making it the sixth consecutive year that HOI has been a recipient of the accolade. The Guardian of Excellence Award recognizes top-performing health care organizations that have achieved the 95th percentile or above of performance in Patient Experience[11]. In 2020, the accolades continued with U.S. News & World Report's 2019-2020 ranking of HOI in the Top 50 hospitals nationwide[12], a 5-star patient experience award by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services [13], and recognition as one of the top 10% in hospitals for patient safety by Healthgrades[14]. Additionally, for the seventh consecutive year, HOI performed the highest volume of joint replacement procedures in the state of California. [15]

History

The idea to build a hospital for the residents of coastal Orange County dates back to 1944. The Rev. Raymond Brahams, seven Presbyterian church members and one physician formed a corporation called the Presbyterian Hospital of Laguna Beach. They began a fund-raising campaign in the local community and changed the name to the Presbyterian Hospital of Orange County after securing a site on the bluffs in Newport Beach. Unable to afford construction costs following World War II, their search for funds became more critical.

In 1950, the Hoag Family Foundation-established 10 years earlier by George Hoag, Sr., who was an early partner in the J.C. Penney Company, his wife Grace and their son George Hoag II-learned of the hospital project and donated the funds needed to begin construction. With the support of the Hoag Family Foundation and the community, the hospital was completed in just two years and named Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian.

The George Hoag Family Foundation[21] and the Association of Presbyterian Members, as the two founding organizations of the hospital, continue providing leadership as corporate members of the Hoag corporation.[22] These corporate members annually elect the board of directors, which includes representatives from the Hoag community and medical staff, as well as the chief executive officer. When the hospital opened on September 15, 1952, there were 75 beds, 68 staff physicians and 60 employees.
