Robert F. Kennedy Medical Center

United States

Robert F. Kennedy Medical Center is a vacant former 274-bed hospital located in Hawthorne, California. Upon opening in 1926 as Hawthorne Community Hospital, the hospital was opened in tandem with Centinela Hospital Medical Center to serve the communities of Hawthorne, El Segundo, Lennox, and Southern Inglewood. The Hospital was renamed in honor of former US senator and then-presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy who was assassinated by Sirhan Sirhan in Los Angeles on June 6, 1968. The Hospital was purchased by Catholic Healthcare West in 1989, and underwent numerous expansions before numerous lawsuits and budgetary issues with the hospital's parent company forced its closure in 2004.
