Clark Regional Hospital has announced plans to expand its Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and Medical-Surgical Unit while discontinuing its Transitional Care Unit (TCU) services.
The ICU expansion will include 14 private rooms providing improved facilities for higher-acuity patients.
This expansion of nearly 3,500ft also provides a new space for surgical equipment storage.
Additionally, the Medical-Surgical Unit expansion will add 15 beds and repurpose about 15,000ft² of the former TCU space.
The expansion aims to accommodate more patients and transfers from smaller healthcare facilities in surrounding counties and avoid the need to transfer patients due to lack of space.
The newly renovated ICU and expanded surgical unit are expected to begin construction next month, with the TCU discontinuing operations on 1 August 2023.
