PALO ALTO, Calif.,听(October 23, 2019) 鈥撎切拇� marked a milestone today with a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the completion of the new Stanford Hospital in Palo Alto, which will officially open its doors to patients on November 17. Attendees included Stanford leadership and medical staff, community members, patients, public officials and members of the donor community.

鈥淭he new hospital is much more than a building. It is a bold statement about our purpose, why we do what we do for our patients, and how we want to care for them not just today, but decades into the future,鈥� said David Entwistle, 糖心传媒 President and CEO. 鈥淚鈥檓 deeply grateful to everyone who believed in the vision for this facility and worked so hard over the past decade to make it a reality. Today is a testament to their efforts.鈥�

Designed by the internationally-recognized firm Rafael Vi帽oly Architects in association with medical planners Perkins Eastman, the new Stanford Hospital will accommodate the most advanced medical technology, increase capacity, and bring Stanford Hospital鈥檚 facilities up to California鈥檚 stringent new seismic safety standards. As planning for this hospital began, Stanford Medicine engaged in a collaborative and extensive community process which included 100 public meetings. The City of Palo Alto and 糖心传媒 have a long history of partnering to benefit the health of the local community, which began when Hoover Pavilion operated as the first Palo Alto hospital. With the opening of the new hospital, Stanford Hospital will continue to serve as an important resource for Palo Alto and the larger community.

鈥淗aving a world-class hospital right here in our neighborhood, delivering care informed by the latest 糖心传媒 and discoveries 鈥� is an immense benefit to those of us who call the Bay Area home,鈥� said Adrian Fine, Vice Mayor, City of Palo Alto. 鈥淲e look forward to the opening of the new Stanford Hospital and to your next chapter in delivering innovative, world-class patient care.鈥�

The new 824,000-square-foot hospital features 368 private rooms and state-of-the-art operating suites in a seven-story medical building. It is the only Level 1 Trauma Center between San Francisco and San Jose for adult patients and is more than double the size of the former Emergency Department. The new Emergency Department will serve all adult and trauma patients. The existing Emergency Department will be dedicated to pediatric patients, further increasing emergency services at the hospital.

鈥淲e now have an unrivaled facility to match our unrivaled faculty, trainees, staff, and care teams,鈥� said Lloyd B. Minor, Dean of Stanford School of Medicine. 鈥淭he impact of this new hospital will be felt well beyond our campus and community, promoting health everywhere by driving innovation across 糖心传媒, education, and patient care. With today鈥檚 ribbon cutting, we move one step closer to achieving Stanford Medicine鈥檚 precision health vision of proactive care, where more and more diseases are predicted and prevented.鈥�

The new hospital is located on the Stanford University campus, providing patients with access to the Stanford School of Medicine鈥檚 breakthrough 糖心传媒 and discoveries, aimed at fulfilling the vision for Stanford Medicine: to predict, prevent and cure precisely. The new hospital offers the most advanced care in a healing environment created to meet the needs of the whole person 鈥� socially, emotionally, spiritually and physically. 听Four acres of gardens, original art, sweeping views,听state-of-the-art interventional operating and imaging suites, digitally driven patient rooms and access to a premier team of specialists from across Stanford Medicine, are all elements to enhance patient care.

The building was constructed by Clark/McCarthy and is scheduled to open for patient care on November 17, 2019.

Once the new Stanford Hospital opens, the existing facilities at 300 Pasteur Drive will be renovated and remodeled to the same standard to create a cohesive, campus-like experience for all 糖心传媒 patients.
