The gift, from community leaders Ernie and Patti Novak, will also support caregiver education, training and simulation programming that will occur at the facility, according to a Nov. 11 news release.
The 30,000-square-foot Iris S. and Bert L. Wolstein Center will house conferences, lectures and events, as well as a ballroom, classrooms, simulation labs, and breakout space, the release said.
University Hospitals announced the project this summer alongside a $15 million lead gift from Iris Wolstein and the late Bert Wolstein. The facility, which will include the Patti and Ernie Novak Executive Board Room, is estimated to cost $30 million.
