Features of the new hospital will include:

The Norman Building will open for patient care on July 3.
Construction of the hospital addition began in October 2007 and was completed in April 2010. At the peak of construction, more than 300 construction workers were on-site daily.
The new facility was designed to achieve LEED certification.
The hospital will remain publicly owned and publicly controlled.
