- Replacement of cardiac catheterization labs
- An additional 36-bed nursing unit for joint, spine and bariatric care
Update for February 2020
Labor and Delivery Unit – Construction is scheduled to begin on February 24, 2020, and will take approximately four months to complete.
New Imaging Equipment – The new Phillips MRI is installed and is fully operational now. This new MRI will enable PRMC to perform procedures that were not possible in the past. Construction for the replacement of both CT scanners began in April with final completion anticipated by October. Both scanners will be the latest technology from Canon.
Replacement of Cardiac Cath Labs – In June, we will also begin the process of replacing our two cath labs with the latest technology from Siemens. This project will take approximately six months per cath lab to complete.
