“It is our privilege to serve our neighbors in southern Chester County as expert, caring partners in health,” Janice E. Nevin, MD, ChristianaCare president and CEO, said in a July 13 news release. “We are excited to have this opportunity to reimagine healthcare at the ChristianaCare West Grove Campus. We are here as long-term partners in supporting a healthy southern Chester County community.”

The new location adds to numerous ChristianaCare care sites in Chester County.

Newark, Del.-based ChristianaCare and West Reading, Pa.-based Tower Health first announced plans to purchase Jennersville Hospital in June. The nonprofit healthcare system said it will take “a few more months” to set a timeline for Jennersville’s reopening and that its first priority is to add emergency care there.
