Community Howard Hospital E.R. Addition


Location - Kokomo, Indiana
Project - E.R. Addition
Completed - June 2007
Square Feet - 31,612
Construction Cost - $8,529,000

A new 31,000 square foot single story addition for expansion the Emergency Department features twenty-one treatment rooms and four observation rooms. A fast-track unit with six treatment rooms is also being provided. Other support features include a three-bay ambulance garage, roof-top helipad, CT Scan and radiography rooms.

Community Howard broke ground in the autumn of 2005 for this new $9.9 million Emergency Department. Designed to expedite and enhance patient flow, the new facility offers traditional emergency and trauma services as well as a 12-hour “fast track” area.

The new ED includes an expanded triage area from which patients will be taken to one of the 15 emergency care rooms, one of six fast track rooms, or one of four observation rooms, depending on the level of care needed. Exam rooms have been specifically designed for OB/GYN, ENT and orthopedic cases, as well as for other specific patient needs.

A 64-channel CT scanner housed in the new Emergency Department makes state-of-the-art imaging faster for efficient, more accurate diagnosis.
