History Of Cedars-Sinai Medical Center
Jewish community concern about meeting the health needs of a growing
Los Angeles community surfaced when Kaspare Cohn Hospital, predecessor
of Cedars of Lebanon, was dedicated Sept. 21, 1902, on the East side of
Los Angeles to provide care to those in need. In 1910, the hospital was
moved to a 50-bed facility on Whittier Boulevard, and in 1930 moved to
Fountain Avenue where it opened as Cedars of Lebanon Hospital.
Meanwhile, the Bikur Cholim Society opened a two-room
hospice in 1918, which was the predecessor of the Mount Sinai
Home for the Incurables. In 1921, the hospice became Bikur
Cholim Hospital when it moved to a Boyle Heights home with
eight beds. The Bikur Cholim Hospital became the Mount
Sinai Home for the Incurables in 1923, and in 1926 a new and
larger Mount Sinai was built on Bonnie Beach Place. In 1950,
Emma and Hyman Levine purchased three-and-one-half acres
of land and donated the property to Mount Sinai Hospital
under the auspices of their foundation. In 1955, the new
Mount Sinai Hospital opened on Beverly Boulevard, future site
of Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.
