See story Kitsap Sun by Conor Wilson
Multiple new health care facilities are slated to open in Kitsap County next year, bringing more options for emergent care and aiming to reduce dependence on the county’s lone emergency department.
Atop the list is a long-planned expansion at St. Michael Medical Center in Silverdale. The hospital expects to open a 74-bed tower in “late 2025,” President Chad Melton told the Kitsap Sun this month.
“Our new tower and increased bed count will help us increase overall capacity to meet patient needs and help ease some of the burden in our emergency department,” he wrote in an email.
Other projects mentioned in this story:
- VMFH to open hybrid emergency room and urgent care (Port Orchard and Bremerton)
- MultiCare ER opening in East Bremerton
- Peninsula Community Health Services to open medical respite center in downtown Bremerton
