Cox Medical Center South in Springfield, Mo., has completed the patient move to its new $130-million 343,000-square-foot West Tower, according to an article on the Medical Construction & Design website.
The ground floor is home to the new neonatal intensive care unit. The unit houses 28 beds and each infant will have its own room, and the rooms will have a twin bed so one parent can stay overnight.
