(PAOLI, PA; NOVEMBER 2007)--Construction of our new Patient Care Pavilion continues this fall as the building begins to take shape and structural steel is erected. By early December, the final steel beam will be in place and the exterior skin installation will start with completion in early spring 2008. The building will be completely enclosed and ready for interior work and finishes in early summer 2008. When the project is completed in early summer 2009, we will double the size of the hospital.

The New Patient Care Pavilion will be opened in phases but will ultimately include:
• 126 New Private Rooms
• A larger, more accessible Emergency Department
• 14 New Operating Rooms.
• A 3-story arrival and lobby area with an enclosed walkway to our 737-space parking garage.

The new “Loop Road” in front of the parking garage remains open to route traffic away from the construction site.
Valet parking is still available at the Hospital Main Entrance.
