Rose Medical Center was founded in 1945 by a group of Jewish community leaders who wanted to create a hospital that was free of discrimination. Following a national fundraising campaign, the new hospital was named in honor of Denver prominent figure Major General Maurice Rose, one of the highest-ranking members of the military to die in the field of combat. The cornerstone of the main building of the hospital was laid by General Dwight D. Eisenhower on August 31, 1948, and General Rose Memorial Hospital opened for patients in March 1949. Rose gave credentials to the first African American physician in the state of Colorado.
