The project added 30 new beds to the center’s critical care and medical-surgical units, which both received major renovations to their patient care areas.
The new critical care rooms offer patient beds that have advanced technology with therapeutic and patient safety features.

The hospital also plans to open an outpatient facility and a freestanding emergency room this summer.
