The patient care tower will be a 115,000 square foot multi-story building with 55 new private patient rooms, including a new Intensive Care Unit; five new operating rooms in the Surgical Suite; and 24 new rooms in the Emergency Department. The new patient rooms will have private bathrooms and showers and will be more spacious and comfortable for families while visiting their loved one.
The new tower will create an even better environment for our patients and caregivers and incorporates the latest technology in healthcare.
