The expansion and new main building will increase access to America’s most advanced and family friendly hospital for children and expectant mothers.
Set for a 2017 opening, the expansion is expected to assist families in need of high-quality care and can ensure that patients are not turned away due to lack of space.
Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital Stanford said the plan also includes provision for a launching pad for expanding and renovating the current hospital next door.
It will involve development of a room aimed at expanding the existing Pediatric Heart Center, which intends to premiere a new and larger space in 2018 due to rising patient demands.
