Sharp Chula Vista Emergency Dept Expansion
Emergency Department Expansion
Sharp Chula Vista Medical Center – Chula Vista, CA
Sharp Chula Vista Medical Center houses one of the busiest emergency departments per bed in San Diego County. The expansion increased the number of beds to better serve the growing South Bay community. The number of triage rooms was doubled and the size of the waiting room increased, doubling its capacity so all who visit this emergency department can wait in comfort.
The existing department was completely remodeled to provide better patient flow and increase patient privacy. A new CT scanner, dedicated exclusively to the Emergency Department, provides faster care for patients requiring emergency needs.
This project included the expansion of the electrical system in order to support this busy department.
