Syracuse, N.Y.-based Crouse Hospital will shut down its 43-year-old emergency room next Tuesday and move it to a new $38 million facility, according to The Post-Standard.
The new ER is located on top of the hospital's surgical suite and will include a treatment room for stroke victims and two more ambulance bays than the old ER. Renovations will begin on the old facility to house the hospital's walk-in urgent care clinic, PromptCare, which is currently located across the street from the hospital.
"This is a major milestone for us and it's exciting to be able to bring it to the community," said Kimberly Boynton, Crouse's president and chief executive officer.
