Memorial Hospital – Chester’s Board of Directors are proud to announce they will soon be breaking ground on a new Medical Office Building (MOB), which will be constructed on their campus at 1900 State Street in Chester. The MOB will be located on the west side of the existing hospital and be the new home for the Chester Clinic and Convenient Care.
The newly constructed building will be ADA compliant and include improved safety for patients and staff. The focus of the project is patient-centered with access to Hospital services, the retail pharmacy, less wait times for Convenient Care, improved access to primary care, and a covered canopy drop-off similar to the Hospital’s. “The Medical Office Building has been part of our long range plan since 2018,” says Brett Bollmann, CEO. “Memorial Hospital has been saving for many years and 100% of the projects $8.8 million cost will be covered through our capital savings funds. The new facility will allow added space for improved efficiencies for patient and staff work flows as well as room for future growth.”
By moving these services to one campus, the patients can benefit from the convenience of access to all levels of care at one location and the providers will have quicker access to the Hospital. Tentative plans are to open at the beginning of 2025.
