Trinity Health St. Joseph Mercy Brighton (Mich.) Health Center received unanimous approval from its township to expand the facility into a full service hospital, Livingston Daily reported Oct. 18.
The project will add over 186,000 square feet and renovate existing parts of the facility, which is part of Livonia, Mich.-based Trinity Health. It will have 72 inpatient beds and include a mother and baby unit, more emergency department services and a new cafeteria.
Hospital officials are still deciding what medical services will be offered, according to the report.
Trinity's board of directors will review facility plans in December. A timeline for construction has not yet been finalized.
The project was initially halted in July after the Genoa Township Planning Commission expressed concerns about traffic and storm water regulation.
