Once complete, the new campus would contain 419 licensed acute care beds. The hospital currently accommodates 404 such beds, a city Planning Department web post states. The new hospital portion will be constructed next to the existing medical center. The project will enable Good Sam to comply with the seismic rules when the new hospital construction is complete in 2029.
“Changes in operational and patient care models, increases in average patient acuity and disease prevalence, increased use of private patient rooms and the evolution and impact of technology” are major factors behind the project, the proposal states.The total building area at the future Good Samaritan medical complex would be slightly under 1.35 million square feet, compared with the current campus which totals 450,700 square feet, the city plans show.
The existing complex provides 1,031 parking stalls. The proposal would eventually create a complex with 2,422 stalls.
