The new seven-story, 290,000-square-foot patient tower will accommodate 102 beds to support Riverside County’s growing population.

As a designated trauma center in Southwest Riverside County, the existing healthcare campus has remained fully operational throughout construction. The project team relocated every major utility that sat in the footprint of the new tower.

More than 600 local workers from a variety of trades have worked 173,200 hours to bring the project to this point.

HOK is the design architect. Major trade partners working on the project include SPW Concrete & Drywall, Schuff Steel, DBC, UMEC, Murray Co., Berg Electric, BAPCO, McIntyre, Neville Group and Woodbridge.
