Mercy San Juan expansion update
Mercy San Juan Medical Center has broken ground on its $125 million expansion project, which will include a new 6-story wing in the hospital that will bring 110 additional patient care beds to the community. The plan also includes upgrades to the existing building and additional parking capacity to meet the needs of our patients, visitors, employees and doctors.
Some of the highlights of the expansion include:
- All of the rooms in the new wing will be private rooms
- The project will include space for an additional 30 beds for the future
- The new wing will be the new entrance for Mercy San Juan, with a new chapel as the focal point
- The project will include a new parking structure
- When the project is complete, Mercy San Juan will have between 350 and 375 beds. The final count will be determined by community need. In the current hospital, some semi-private rooms will be converted to private rooms.
The medical center began construction in summer 2007, with the new wing scheduled to open in 2009. The project is being planned with the concerns of patients, members of the school community and neighbors in mind. Efforts will be made to minimize disruption caused by construction vehicles and construction activities. Mercy San Juan is also working with Sacramento County, Coyle Avenue Elementary School and local neighbors to discuss possible changes that could provide traffic relief on Coyle Avenue.
