Newark, Del.-based ChristianaCare has shared plans to invest more than $865 million across the state over the next three years.
The investments aim to create economic impact that results in new construction and employment. It comes after the health system invested more than $375 million in Delaware over a three-year period, according to a July 1 news release.
ChristianaCare will also conduct a community health needs assessment every three years that features community and local leadership input, along with investment in value-based care and population health.
The health system will break ground on its Middletown-based ChristianaCare Health Center in 2025. The 87,000-square-foot facility will surround a freestanding emergency department and is expected to open in early 2027.
ChristianaCare will also expand behavioral health, cancer care, primary care and specialty and surgical care across the state.
“We look forward to announcing these projects in the year ahead and over the course of the next three years, and we want Delawareans to know that our commitment to your health is unwavering,” Jennifer Schwartz, chief strategy officer of ChristianaCare, said in the release.
