The $271 million project includes the new hospital, which will house an emergency department, operating rooms and 267 licensed beds. It also includes several renovations to Mercy Health’s existing facility in Muskegon.
Hospital officials plan to open the ED and operating rooms in September if construction goes as planned.
“The amount of change and the progress and pace that our construction partners are making on this is nothing short of amazing,” Nicholas Strait, director of clinical consolidation at Mercy Health, told WZZM.
Construction on the project began in May 2016. The full project is slated to finish in summer of 2019.
