Effort begins with Memorial hospital expansion and additions to emergency and trauma units
Sharp HealthCare, the largest medical provider in the region, will kick off a decade-long, $2 billion investment in its medical facilities throughout the region Thursday when workers break ground on a new emergency and trauma expansion at Sharp Memorial Hospital in the San Diego neighborhood of Serra Mesa.
Those buildings will remain in use over the next eight years as the building campaign marches across the property, first adding a two-story annex with 31 additional treatment rooms and other amenities to Memorial’s existing emergency and trauma department which was a large part of a modern new $195 million L-shaped tower that opened in 2009.
Situated inside a triangle of land between state Route 163 and Interstate 805, Memorial is landlocked in all directions, with Rady Children’s Hospital to its immediate east and dense collections of medical office buildings all around. This means that there are few open spots available as Sharp HealthCare seeks to modernize its medical infrastructure.
