History
A cornerstone-laying ceremony to mark the construction of Marikina Emergency Hospital was held on May 3, 1963.[2]
The hospital was inaugurated in 1966, and by 1969 was renamed Eulogio Rodriguez, Sr. Memorial Hospital (ERSMH).
In 1995, through Republic Act No. 8019, the hospital was upgraded to a medical center and renamed 'Amang' Rodriguez Medical Center (ARMC).[3] By 2007, the hospital's bed capacity was increased from 150 to 300 through Republic Act No. 9419, with the word "Memorial" added back to the hospital's name.[4]
