Pharmacy complete; crews turn attention to pediatrics unit
Earlier this year, Sheridan Memorial Hospital kicked off the construction work planned as part of its Growing for You campaign, which includes updates to several areas of the hospital and will culminate in the opening of a new behavioral health unit in 2027.
In July, contractors completed the first phase of the Growing for You campaign – the completion of a new space for the hospital’s internal pharmacy. The pharmacy team moved into its new space the week of July 15, allowing contractors to turn their attention to the next phase of the project.
Demolition of the space formerly occupied by the pharmacy team has begun, as construction crews work to transform the space into Sheridan Memorial Hospital’s new pediatrics unit. With the next phase of the Growing for You project underway, the south hallway leading from the main entrance to the lobby nearest patient rooms has been closed. Visitors should look for temporary wayfinding signs highlighting the alternative route to patient rooms.
In addition, noise from the construction may be noticeable to visitors and patients, though crews and hospital staff are working to minimize noise impacts.
The pediatrics unit is projected to be completed by early 2025.
