In 1948, the Puericulture Center and Women's Club in the Municipality of Medina, Province of Misamis Oriental established a maternity hospital to primarily serve the women and children of their community.

Monthly subsidy from the provincial government for a time sustained the personnel and operations of the facility until 2005.

The Club then donated the hospital to the Department of Health, and the hospital resumed operations as a 25-bed capacity satellite facility of the Northern Mindanao Medical Center that offered maternal and child health and other preventive, curative, and rehabilitative services.

As Medina Extension Hospital, as of 2020, the facility is licensed as a 28-bed capacity infirmary.
