St.Vincent Completes 110,000-Square Foot Expansion and Hosts Fishers Hospital Tour
On Wednesday, March 20, St.Vincent Fishers Hospital Administrator Gary Fammartino hosted a media tour for the new 50-bed inpatient facility, located at 13914 Southeastern Parkway.
The 110,000-square foot expansion focuses on wellness, women’s health and family health. The new hospital encompasses 30 medical/surgical beds, 10 labor-delivery-recovery-post-partum beds and 10 observation beds. In addition, the three-story hospital has spa-like amenities, indoor and outdoor dining, and convenient 24-hour room service for patients.
The St.Vincent team is actively in the pursuit to secure Leadership in Energy and Environment Design (LEED) certification for Fishers Hospital. St.Vincent is the first hospital in Indiana and the 17th in the nation to register for the LEED certification process.
In 2008, the faith-based health system opened Indiana’s first freestanding emergency department at the Fishers location. In addition, the facility has an ambulatory surgery center, all-digital imaging center, and a medical office building including primary care offices, a pediatric and adult sleep disorders center, rehabilitation, laboratory and mental health services.
St.Vincent Fishers Hospital will officially open to the community on April 8, 2013.
