US-based Rady Children’s Hospital San Diego has unveiled plans to construct a new medical office building on four acres of land in Murrieta.
Named Rady Children’s Health Services, the new facility will offer outpatient services, including paediatric, adolescent and perinatal specialty care.
Rady Children’s Hospital business development director Kathleen Korn said: "There’s a growing demand for paediatric healthcare in southwest Riverside County.
"That’s why Rady Children’s is making an enduring investment in the health and well-being of children in the region."
Currently, Rady Children’s provides 15 different paediatric and perinatal specialty services at its outpatient office on Medical Center Drive in Murrieta.
Rady plans to shift these services to the new medical office building and will also add new specialties.
