Where will patients go for emergency services when the new hospital opens?
Emergency departments from both Central Valley and Hanford Community will move into the new hospital, creating one centralized location for emergency care with easy access off Highway 198. The centralized location will feature expanded capacity and a helipad, and each emergency patient will have access to all Hanford’s emergency and critical care services at one hospital. The new department will offer 26 treatment stations, two more than what we have now between the two Hanford hospitals. Four beds for trauma care will be included, along with decontamination and isolation rooms.
