A few pictures below
On Monday, January 12, we will have a huge crane in the hospital parking lot. It will be here to remove our old HVAC unit off the roof and replace it with a new HVAC unit. In order to do that safely, we will have a large area coned off in the parking lot that will be off limits for staff and patients and visitors.
There will be NO ACCESS to the building through the main Lobby door, the Rehab side door, or the outside Clinic door
We ask that everyone enter and exit the building through the side courtyard door. When you enter there, you will turn left to go to the clinic and turn right to go to the hospital lobby
We ask that patients and visitors park in the employee parking lot on the east side of the building - across the street from the hospital right next to the school athletic field. Everyone will use the side door in the courtyard to enter and exit the building.
There will be staff there to help get people across the street and into the building. If you have mobility issues, we will have a golf cart to take you across the street. If you need a wheelchair once inside, please let the staff know and we will get that for you.
Employees will park at the back of the main parking lot so that patients and visitors can park in the side lot
The installation should be completed by Tuesday, January 13th at which time we will go back to using the front entrances as usual.
Please remember If you have an emergency, go to the Emergency Entrance at the back of the hospital
