The project was completed over four phases, spanning over 16 months. The phasing plan allowed the entire department to be remodeled with a new addition, all while maintaining a functioning emergency room with no disruption in patient care. The expansion added fourteen treatment rooms including two trauma rooms, support space, a new patient entrance and lobby, new EMS, staff support and doctor support spaces, and an updated ‘running track’ style layout with better line of sight and access to increase patient care.
