Phase one of the project is the construction of the new Patient Services Center, which will house a surgical suite with ten operating rooms, a diagnostic imaging suite, cafeteria, conference rooms and 36 private patient care rooms.
Members of the hospital's leadership and invited guests, including: Kathleen Hittner, MD, president and CEO; Jeffrey Brier, chairman, The Miriam Hospital board of trustees; Sandra Coletta, senior vice-president and COO; and local politicians spoke at the event.
The event concluded with a ceremonial groundbreaking and unveiling
