San Jose, Calif.
O'Connor Hospital in San Jose approved a three-year strategic plan in November 2002 that will expand physician office space and enhance orthopedic and cardiovascular services. O'Connor will remodel a recently purchased a 32,000-sf building on the city's east side to house a new primary care clinic. The facility will open by year-end 2003. A new $7-million emergency department, relocated from the back of the hospital to the front, will double existing emergency facilities to house 22 beds and will include an urgent care unit. O'Connor has selected space planning consultant HDR to evaluate a 17-acre fully developed property to plan how parking space can be better utilized for buildings and to plan additional physician office space.
