Our Family Caring For Yours

The Hutchinson Regional Healthcare System (HRHS) provides medical care to Reno county residents and the surrounding area. We are an active part of our community and the largest employer in the county, with 1350 employees.

We are a locally owned and governed community hospital whose service area includes Reno and the surrounding counties. More than 40 years ago a group of visionary leaders made history when they successfully combined two competing hospitals into one united entity that could serve all the healthcare needs of the area. In 1975, the merger was one of the first of its kind in the nation.

In the decades since, the hospital and its affiliate entities have provided quality medical care to tens of thousands of our neighbors. We have worked hard to stay up-to-date with the changing requirements of providing quality healthcare.
