Oklahoma healthcare facility readies for reopening three years after tornado

An EF-5 tornado destroyed the former Moore Medical Center


The former Moore Medical Center in Moore, Okla., is ready for reopening three years after an EF-5 tornado destroyed the original facility, according to an article on the OKNews website.

The $32 million, four-story structure brings back a 24/7 critical care emergency department that includes a fast-track area for minor illness and injuries, physical therapy services, diagnostic imaging, laboratory services and physician offices. 

It also features conference space that doubles as a safe area for patients and staff.

During the rebuilding process, government guidelines called for a name change for the facility that was consistent with the rest of the Health System and Moore Medical Center was renamed Norman Regional Moore.
