The 130,000-square-foot facility is connected to the existing hospital by two corridors. It includes 54 beds and a 20-room emergency department. It will also consolidate the hospital's diagnostic imaging areas, which were earlier spread around the hospital.
Hospital leaders expect the addition will improve patient flow and that the new facility will result in modest growth for Chelsea Community Hospital over the next five years, according to the report.
Funding for the project came as a result of a merger with Ypsilanti, Mich.-based Saint Joseph Mercy Health System in 2009.
