Dedicated to meeting health care needs throughout Southeast Texas, CHRISTUS St. Elizabeth has undertaken an aggressive, three-phase expansion project.
The first phase was completed in June 2002, with the construction of a five-story parking garage on Calder Street between 14th and 15th Streets. The second expansion project began in November 2002, with the construction of a three-story Outpatient Treatment Center, 1200 vehicle parking garage, and five-story medical office building. The construction, medical equipment and furnishings for the project are estimated to cost $95 million. Completion is expected in the spring of 2004.
Phase three of CHRISTUS St. Elizabeth’s expansion plan, now in the planning stage, includes construction of a new West Tower on the main campus at the site of the existing parking garage at Calder and 14th Streets. The $95 million West Tower is proposed to expand the hospital emergency department to 40,000 square-feet and bring bed-capacity to 560.
Providing access to health education, primary care, tertiary care, urgent care, rehabilitation and emergency/trauma services are significant roles CHRISTUS St. Elizabeth fulfills to adhere to its community health mission.
