==History==
Dedicated on July 19, 1875, it was the state's first permanent hospital. In January 1971, the original campus in northwest Portland was closed and the current facility opened in Washington County. On January 31, 1971, the hospital used in-part large military buses capable of carrying 18 stretchers at a time to transport patients to the new hospital building. The facility at that time had a single, 13-story tower that consisted of seven floors of patient rooms.〔 The new building had 400 hospital beds, while the old hospital had 420 beds.〔
In 2004, the hospital was one of three in Oregon named by Solucient as a top 100 hospital in the United States.〔“Business Briefs: Providence Milwaukie listed as a top hospital”, The Oregonian, June 3, 2004, South Zoner, p. 2.〕 In November 2009, the employees at the hospital, in conjunction with Medline Industries, produced the "Pink Glove Dance" video (set to "Down") to raise awareness of breast cancer, with the video going viral on the Internet and making national news.
In October 2015, work began on a four-year, $85 million remodeling of the nine-story main hospital building, which was built in 1971. Along with seismic retrofitting and modest expansion, the project will add a new aluminum exterior over the building's existing exposed-concrete surface, greatly changing its appearance when completed.〔
