The new room is roughly double the size of the previous ER, with 13 private rooms, new X-ray reading stations and a trauma room. The ER treats approximately 40,000 patients per year.
The ER is also now connected to the new urgent care wing, which will open in early November and will include an additional 17 rooms for walk-ins with less severe emergency needs, according to the release.
The ER expansion is part of Cherokee Nation Health Services’ $7 million expansion of W.W. Hastings Hospital, which will include renovations to its labor and delivery and physical therapy wings
