Kaiser Permanente's 50-year history of community leadership in San Francisco began with civilian workers from the Hunter's Point Shipyard enrolling in the Kaiser Foundation Health Plan in 1946. Continuing membership growth and expanding medical technology has led the San Francisco Medical Center to the construction and acquisition of several new ultra-modern buildings.

• A hospital with 323 licensed beds
