ChristianaCare has partnered with Emerus Holdings to open three neighborhood hospitals in Pennsylvania. The healthcare companies will develop two new neighborhood hospitals in Delaware County, in addition to the neighborhood hospital being developed at ChristianaCare’s West Grove Campus in southern Chester County. All three neighborhood hospitals are planned to open in 2025, with the West Grove location expected to open first.
Each neighborhood hospital will operate 24/7 with approximately 10 inpatient beds and a full-service emergency department. The emergency departments will treat common emergency care needs, such as falls, injuries, heart attacks and strokes. The hospitals will also provide diagnostic capabilities, including ultrasound, computed tomography, X-ray and laboratory services.
ChristianaCare will also add a health and wellness center at each location with an array of outpatient services. These services will be developed based on community needs and could include primary care, outpatient diagnostics and other specialty services.
Specific locations for the Delaware County neighborhood hospitals have not yet been finalized.
