The new two-story facility you'll soon see rising in front of Fairview Hospital will make room for a growing number of West Side patients in need of immediate care for everything from minor emergencies to life-threatening conditions.
The ground floor will be home to an expanded 24/7 emergency department. Within that will be a new, separate Pediatric ED. A newly expanded Intensive Care Unit (ICU) with 38 private patient rooms will occupy the second floor.
