Stanford University and Alameda Health System announced a new partnership on Thursday to expand specialized medical care at St. Rose Hospital in Hayward and bolster its financial stability.

The agreement is considered a triumphant milestone for St. Rose Hospital, which administrators feared would close as recently as 2024.

The partnership will allow the hospital to develop a new inpatient psychiatric unit, allocate nursing beds for Stanford Health Care referrals and let some Stanford Health Care surgeons use its operating rooms. The efforts, leaders said, will bring long-term sustainability for a hospital that serves 400,000 residents of central and south Alameda County.
