Sturdy Health is transforming their emergency department with state-of-the-art facilities to expand access, advance technology and provide specialized support. 

A reimagined helipad will be constructed to continue allowing rapid air transport for patients who require critical care. The ground floor of the building will provide covered parking. The first floor will be a 38,000-square-foot emergency department. This project will increase capacity with 18 new spaces for a total of 50 patient exam rooms for emergency care provision. 

There will be a dedicated, secure 12-bed behavioral health unit connected to the emergency department to meet the need for acute behavioral health intervention. This specialized unit will provide a safe, therapeutic and supportive environment for patients who are experiencing a mental health crisis and awaiting transfer to a specialized facility. 

  • A 38,000-square-foot emergency department 
  • 50 patient exam rooms, including 18 new spaces 
  • Six fast track rooms to ensure rapid treatment for less critical conditions 
  • Two cutting-edge trauma rooms equipped for life-saving care 
  • On-site imaging and CT scanning for seamless diagnosis 
  • 12 secure private rooms in a dedicated behavioral health unit
