UnityPoint Health-Trinity opened an expansion of its Heart Center and Emergency Department (ED) in Rock Island, Ill., according to an article on the Healthcare Construction + Operations website.
The 61.3 million, 90,000-square-foot, three-story expansion will consolidate cardiac services and increase capacity.
The facility includes a secure front triage area, a dedicated trauma room, a general radiology room, a CT room and private elevator.
It also has 22 general treatment stations, three of which were built to safe-room standards that ensure a room provides near-absolute protection in extreme weather events.
