BANNER BOSWELL MEDICAL CENTER The new $106 million, 322,000-square-foot emergency department (ED) and patient tower expansion is complete with a new lobby, pharmacy, gift shop, and support spaces.
The project also includes an expansion to the central plant for increased efficiency and support for expansion in the future. Projected to open in late 2020, the new expansion will provide much needed additional space for the medical center’s existing ED, which typically runs at or near full capacity. The new ED will increase capacity from 42 to 56 beds, allowing the department to care for up to 60,000 ED patients annually. The new six-story patient tower’s first floor will contain the main lobby, gift shop, retail pharmacy, admitting desk, and chapel. The five floors above the main lobby will remain shell space, reserved for up to 192 future inpatient rooms. “Shell space” is constructed to meet future needs. It is space enclosed by an exterior building shell, but otherwise, unfinished inside.
