Hospital Sisters Health System (HSHS) leaders announced the nonprofit, regional health system will invest $270 million in strategic capital over the next three to five years to meet the need for greater healthcare access in Green Bay and surrounding communities. 

At a press conference at HSHS St. Mary’s Hospital Medical Center, HSHS Wisconsin Market President and CEO Bob Erickson announced plans to expand and remodel its two hospitals in Green Bay, HSHS St. Mary’s Hospital Medical Center and HSHS St. Vincent Hospital. 

HSHS St. Mary’s Hospital Medical Center, located at 1726 Shawano Avenue and the only hospital on Green Bay’s west side since 1960, will be the site of the largest expansion and transformation. 

Preliminary design plans for the expansion and transformation of HSHS St. Mary’s Hospital Medical Center shared at the press conference include a new tower on the existing campus that would allow for more intermediate and intensive care beds. Early design plans also call for additional operating and procedural rooms, wider corridors and spaces that offer more natural light, plus additional parking and entry to make navigating the hospital campus easier.
