Watch Us Grow: Pediatric Emergency Center
Each week, we capture images from construction, expansion and renovations occurring across USA Health.
Demolition work has started in the former administration offices at USA Health Children’s & Women’s Hospital in preparation for the expansion of the Pediatric Emergency Center.
Scheduled for completion in summer 2023, the new facility will more than double the current emergency department from 9,000 square feet to nearly 19,000 square feet and expand from 14 treatment areas to more than 30 areas, including 25 private treatment rooms. The project also will create two behavioral health rooms and a sensory room to enhance the care for patients with specialized needs.
USA Health offers the only pediatric emergency center in the Mobile area, offering emergent care for children, adolescents and teens, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
