The planned expansion at Banner Boswell Medical Center in Sun City is expanding even more, healthcare giant Banner Health has announced.
Along with Sun Health Foundation, the company announced plans in March for the construction of a new $60.4M emergency room on the campus. The 40KSF Emergency Department will provide 33 percent more patient beds and faster, easier access to emergency medical treatment.
Last week, however, Banner Health’s board of directors approved expanding the project to include construction of a new six-story patient tower shell, as well. The new tower shell will represent an additional $46M investment into the community by nonprofit Banner Health. Combined with the new emergency department, which the community is helping support through Sun Health Foundation, Banner Boswell is set to receive an investment totaling more than $106M.
