The Clinical Pavilion, which opened last summer, only houses private patient rooms, which hospital CEO Steve Dexter said is the key to the dramatically improved patient outcomes. Patient private rooms mean patients don’t have to share their space with other individuals, thereby preventing the spread of bacteria and infections.
In addition, the new pavilion has helped increase admissions at the hospital. According to the news report, admissions were up for eight of the previous 10 months compared to last year.
