The hospital will add three “fast-track” bays to its ER, which will serve less acute patients who don’t require extensive or time-consuming care. Patients will be seen by a physician assistant or nurse within the new space.
On Tuesday, the hospital’s board of governors awarded a $163,000 contract to Wolfe Construction to lead the project. The renovation will begin in September and is expected to take about nine weeks to complete, according to the report.
