The 24,000-square-foot expansion includes 24 private rooms and a new catheterization laboratory, which brings the total number of catheterization labs at the hospital to four. Previously, patients would receive heart care in the hospital on a general patient floor, but the expansion creates a dedicated heart and vascular unit for recovery, a spokesperson told Becker’s.
The Heart and Vascular Center opened in 2009, and since then its clinicians have performed more than 4,300 successful angioplasties.
