Spectrum Health recently announced new building projects that aim to benefit patients in several West Michigan locations with better access to primary and specialty care. The projects focus on expanding outpatient services and represent an investment of $151 million. The new projects include:
Medical Center – New Ambulatory Care Building. This new 11-story, 240,000-square-foot building in Grand Rapids will allow Spectrum Health to continue advancing education, research and clinical excellence in one location. It will bring together several outpatient services, including primary and specialty care, such as heart and vascular and neurosciences clinics, as well as residency clinics. The facility also will include a simulation center to train and educate physicians by using applied experiential learning and hands-on innovative technology to improve patient safety and outcomes. The building is set to open in spring 2024.
Lakeview Rural Health Clinic. A new Rural Health Clinic will bring together outpatient care for the Lakeview community and surrounding area in a convenient location. The 15,800-square-foot building will relocate the Lakeview Family Medicine practice, outpatient rehabilitation and walk-in clinic from their current locations and provide space for specialty care services. The building is set to open in spring 2023.
Big Rapids Primary Care Building. The new 33,000-square-foot building will house the Big Rapids Family Medicine clinic, the first Spectrum Health Urgent Care in the area, outpatient rehabilitation, occupational health and other ancillary services, currently located in the hospital.
