Poudre Valley Health System, based in Fort Collins, Colo., has announced plans to build an emergency room and same-day surgery center in Greeley.
The $14.5 million, 22,000-square-foot emergency facility is scheduled to open in June 2012 and will be divided into two main areas. One section will house an emergency care center that will include 10 examination rooms, two pediatric exam rooms, a resuscitation room and laboratory. The diagnostic imaging area will include X-ray, ultrasound, CT and MRI. The building also will feature a covered ambulance bay for easy emergency access in and out of the facility.
The same-day surgery center, located on the west side of the freestanding emergency room, will include three preparatory areas, two operating rooms, recovery areas and an observation room.
The emergency division of the new facility will be staffed by board-certified emergency room physicians from Emergency Physicians of the Rockies. Same-day surgery services will be offered for select general and elective surgeries in the areas of endoscopy, gastroenterology, orthopedics and urology. Other outpatient surgeries will be added as needs arise. In addition to outpatient surgeries, outpatient IV therapy services will be offered.
